“We all have the same rights to be here.”
But how about when the place you call home no longer needs you?
In Mamaland, a train ride transforms into a reflection of modern-day Africa where strangers become neighbours, neighbours become foes, and all are seeking a place that they can call their own. With old wounds being opened and new divisions being created, there is one question that remains: What does it really take to call a land a motherland?
In these pages, the final gesture of love from a daughter will be the final goodbye from a father. Ambition and betrayal combine in closed rooms where the exchange of power takes place. Families are challenged by sorrow, strangers battle prejudice, and normal people show extraordinary bravery when life requires more of them than they thought they can give.

Books, African Interest, AutoBiography
KShs2,000.00
Moments in the Private Room is a piercing exploration of Zimbabwean society by the debutant author, Kudzai Mhangwa.

From the pangs of love to the comforts of friendship, the thrilling vexation of chasing a dream to the burden of expectations - the perplexity of it all. And at the heart of everything is the complexity of human character, its strengths and shortcomings, its beauty and messiness that is as iridescent as the stories themselves.

He confronts power relations between large corporations and small communities, corporate lobbies and governments, and big pharma and consumers, all expressed through the competing narratives that record the life and death of a civilization.In a novel of stunning scope, Chuma Nwokolo moves across time and place to deliver a story that speaks to urgent contemporary concerns. His characters’ indelible voices offer perspectives that are simultaneously global, political, and intimately human.

Of Deadbeats, Bastard Children and Pagan Wives

Anthology Of Short Stories
KShs2,000.00 KShs1,599.00
Of Deadbeats, Bastard Children and Pagan Wives is a bold anthology that gathers voices from across the continent to tell the stories that linger in silence—stories of shame, survival, rebellion, and reckoning. Here, forgotten children speak, abandoned women rise, and the ghosts of family and faith return with questions no one wants to answer. This collection peels back the layers of respectability to reveal what lies beneath: the chaos of love, the ache of rejection, the rage of the misunderstood, and the unexpected beauty in being seen. Each story crackles with emotional honesty, giving life to characters we know but rarely acknowledge. These are the truths whispered behind closed doors. These are the stories we dare not tell, but must.
