The Attitude of Gratitude by Gerald Musyoki Paul
In The Attitude of Gratitude, debut novelist Gerald Musyoki Paul delivers a breathtaking, emotional, and redemptive literary journey that explores the raw power of gratitude amid brutality, betrayal, and brokenness. Spanning orphanhood, abuse, poverty, survival, and spiritual awakening, this is not just a story—it is a reckoning with the soul.
Stance, a resilient young man is born into hardship and abandoned to fate after the tragic death of his parents. His new life under the cruel rule of his stepmother, Mrs. Tinah, is nothing short of a nightmare. Stripped of love, dignity, education, and basic human kindness, Stance is relegated to living in a filthy dog kennel, beaten, starved, and shamed daily by those who should care for him. But something within Stance refuses to die—his will to dream. To escape. To live again.
Stance's harrowing escape attempt leads to a tragic stabbing by a gatekeeper who mistakes him for a thief. It is his stepsister Kellen, who defies her mother to save him. Kellen, having suffered in silence under her domineering mother, leaves home to seek a better life. In the dense forests of Kenya, she faces her own trials—lost, alone, and at the brink of death, her survival becomes a spiritual battle. After surviving his near-death experience, Stance is rescued by Kalau, a kind-hearted old herdsman with no children of his own. Kalau’s unwavering generosity provides more than just food and shelter—it rekindles Stance's dreams of education, purpose, and healing.
As Stance finds refuge in his new home and a chance at rebuilding his life, Kellen is swept into the digital whirlpool of social media and a deceptive virtual romance with a stranger named Billy Clench. Seduced by charm and the promise of love, she slowly loses herself in a fantasy world—one that threatens to consume her. Back in the city, karma strikes hard at Mrs. Tinah. A fire consumes her lavish home and all her worldly treasures, leaving her and Bilbo, her son, injured and destitute. Their trusted gatekeeper, Gregory, turns from loyal servant to accidental traitor—and comic relief. Mrs. Tinah is hospitalized, abandoned by her own greed, and forced to reckon with the consequences of her hardened heart.
As Gregory flees with what remains of their fortune, Bilbo is left to wander, searching for meaning, purpose, and a way to save his mother. Through richly layered characters, biting satire, vivid humor, and biblical undertones, The Attitude of Gratitude is a story that dances between pain and poetry. It challenges readers to confront life’s toughest questions: Can gratitude survive in the face of trauma? Is forgiveness possible when the scars are still fresh? How do we rebuild when life has burned everything we once held dear? Mrs. Tinah, once the epitome of materialism and vanity, is unmasked by tragedy. Her fall from grace is a sobering reminder that wealth without compassion is a house built on sand.

Multiethnic Democracy: The Logic of E...
Who are the swing voters in multiethnic democracies? How much effort do parties invest in courting the swing relative to mobilizing supporters in their core ethnic bases? And how does this balance affect the policies leaders propose - and implement - if elected?
This book examines the logic of electoral competition and policymaking in the context of Kenya's emerging multiparty democracy. Using data on voters, campaigns, and policy outcomes, it shows that the pursuit of the swing encourages presidential candidates to offer broad, inclusive promises and for election winners to opt for universal policies that share benefits widely. In doing so, it challenges the view - common to both popular accounts and scholarly work - that where ethnicity is politically salient, multiparty competition inevitably leads parties to focus their electoral efforts on mobilizing narrow ethnic factions and to concentrate rewards on ethnic clientele.
