Passage of Tears, Paperback / softback Book

Passage of Tears Paperback / softback

Part of the Africa List series

Paperback / softback

Available to Order - This title is available to order, with delivery expected within 2 weeks

Description

Passage of Tears cleverly mixes many genres and forms of writing--spy novel, political thriller, diary (replete with childhood memories), travel notebook, legends, parables, incantations, and prayers.

Djibril's reminiscences provide a sense of Djibouti's past and its people, while a satire of Muslim fundamentalism is unwittingly delivered through the other Djiboutian voice.

Waberi's inventive parody is a lesson in tolerance, while his poetic observations reveal his love and concern for his homeland.
