Brilliant Disaster: He’s her pa...
Jane Ndunge has one morning to save her PR firm. James Mutiso has one company left to save. The last person either of them expected to need was the other.
Brilliant Disaster is a sharp, fast, and completely unhinged love story set in the heart of Nairobi, where one coffee spill starts a war, a fake relationship breaks all the rules, and two people who should never have worked together discover they can’t work without each other.
Enemies to lovers. Boardrooms to kibandas. Chaos to something real. Nairobi has never looked this good on fire.
Nostalgik – A Deliberate Glance...
This 40+ page coffee table photo book invites you to a feeling. A tug that quietly, persistently pulls you towards a time that no longer exists, except in corners like this one.
It’s an archive of memory. Its pages are visual artifacts, assemblages of objects, soundscapes and sights attempting to reconstruct an era.
Vintage ink boxes, distinct red wrap of Imperial Leather, iconic yellow tins of Blue Band, Casio ticks, landline rings, record player spins.
Every image a door to walk down memory lane, to reminisce a collage of lived experience. Each inviting you to sift through the layers, recall the scents, the sights, perhaps the sounds, and step back into a vibrant, analog world.
A Stranger’s Pose by Emmanuel Duma
A Stranger's Pose draws readers into a world of encounters across more than a dozen African towns through stories remembered and imagined, alongside striking images by acclaimed photographers.
Blending memoir, travel writing and storytelling, Emmanuel Iduma traces a journey across several African cities. Inspired by his travels with photographers between 2011 and 2015, his personal reflections are interwoven with stories of movement, estrangement and intimacy.
From an arrest in a market in N'Djamena and an encounter with a gendarmes officer on a Cameroonian highway to meeting the renowned photographer Malick Sidibé in Bamako, these vivid fragments create a rich and deeply personal portrait of contemporary Africa.

In the case of Sam Njogu, a medical doctor, his problem cannot be cured by civilised medicine. He has to resort finallv to con- coctions of rhino horn. and what have you. And this bush medicine works to the extent that he even appears in court on a charge of rape. But in his attemnpt to get this life--giving medicine. Njogu risks his professional status by allowing himself to be blackmailed into giving a false report to the police con- cerning the death of a one-day old baby at the Smiles Maternity Home owned by his friend Dr. Alex Wanjau
In typical Mwangi Ruheni vein. this story is hilariously entertaining in its treatment of themes such as crime. adventure. love, blackmail. in an environ- ment which is all too familiar to us.

TRIAD OF NIN by Franz Owano
Sidus, an undiscovered planet strewn within the Milky Way is the capitol of the Imperium. Inhabited predominantly by the Nin, an alien race that lords over its vassal dominions with an iron-fist. Over millennia the seeds of Imperialism planted blossom in tragic ways. A terrible secret places billion of its subjects & the celestial bodies they call home in harm’s way. Knowledge of which unrolls the sorrowful panorama of Excelsis Deo’s already lost innocence. Plaguing the decorated Nin warrior with disillusion & the ruptures of a starved soul. Burdened by the hopes, dreams & fears of not only his race but a myriad of species; will he live to the pulse beat of his time or shun being a political pawn in a far-reaching power struggle?
This novel is a meditation on mortality. An exposition of a planet’s demise and a crumbling empire along with it. Will the Nin grapple for survival in expedient resolve or ambivalently resign to a pre-ordained fate?
