A Slice of Darkness for Breakfast ...
This anthology features some of Kenya’s freshest writing talents. It is a collection of stories that explore the dark corners of the human mind.
Some of the stories find something in those dark corners, grab it and drag it out as it thrashes like fish on a hook.
Others find something unfathomable lurking in the dark and come out screaming. Yet some tales shine the light on the dark crevices and what we behold knocks us back or takes our breath away.
Whichever way you slice it, these stories will have a lasting impact on you, er, your breakfast.
ECHOES OF HER SILENCE: A journey Thro...
Echoes of Her Silence is a deeply moving memoir that traces the quiet strength of a woman who refused to be broken by life’s storms. Through the intertwined themes of love, loss, faith, and rebirth, Beatrice Ochieng invites readers into the sacred spaces of her silence — where pain met prayer, and grief gave birth to grace.
Set against the backdrop of her journey as a nurse, counselor, widow, and mother, the narrative unveils the raw realities of caregiving, heartbreak, and the search for identity after loss. From the final days of her husband’s illness to the haunting silence that followed his passing, Beatrice captures the profound weight of sorrow — and the divine whispers that led her back to life.
But Echoes of Her Silence is not merely a story of grief; it is one of redemption and resilience. It chronicles how faith can become both an anchor and a light, how forgiveness can heal even the deepest wounds, and how purpose can emerge from the ruins of pain.
Through her reflections, Beatrice reminds readers that silence is not emptiness — it is where God often speaks the loudest. Her story becomes a testimony of courage, compassion, and the unyielding beauty of a heart that still believes in hope.
A Child of Two Worlds: My Journey fro...
Deeply personal and unfiltered.
A Child of Two Worlds is a love letter to a fading way of life while navigating a tumultuous new world.
This memoir is not just a life story; it’s a meditation on what makes a life meaningful. There’s a sincerity in the way Ummuro shares even the most painful or vulnerable parts of his life. Whether it’s the sanitary discomfort of a boarding school latrine or the haunting quiet of a desert storm, the reader is pulled into each moment. The writing does not beg sympathy, it seeks understanding. As the narrative is structured as a message to the author’s sons—who are growing up in a contemporary Western context—it offers relevance to readers experiencing generational or cultural differences. That includes immigrant families, global citizens, and readers who want to reflect on identity, roots, and legacy.
The sensory detail of the stories is exceptional. The landscape is not just a backdrop—it becomes a character in itself—whether that’s the barren beauty of Susukh or the cold snow falling outside his window in North Carolina. Quotes from elders, spiritual insights from his grandfather, and thoughtful observations on the sacredness of life give the stories a layered maturity. Ummuro is documenting not just his life, but the passing of a world. He knows that many Gabra customs are fading fast, and this book feels like a tribute to the dignity, resilience, and richness of his people.
What is really inspiring is Ummuro’s ability to hold both worlds with reverence, without losing his sense of identity in either. The book is not just about his personal journey, it’s a cultural archive, a love letter to the Gabra people, and a reflection on the cost and complexity of change.
And even as an international development professional, he often falls back on his indigenous knowledge to humanize the data, policies and programs on health, education, community leadership and governance, and issues like drought and climate change.
Maasai Education and Social Change by...
This important study delves into the cultural politics leading to low literacy levels in Maasai land in the colonial period and the early post-independence years. It's approach to pedagogy does not side step the politics of education– local, Regional, international and the dynamics that conspire to limit what is taught when, where , how and by whom. Chief among these is the politics of (dis) placement and land grabs leading to the systematic marginalisation.
The book allows the reader to see what was gained in the pursuit of western education, what was lost, and what has been artfully woven into modern Maasai identities from a blending of school– formal education and its socioeconomic outcomes– with home – the logic of pastoralism in old Maasai way of Knowing.
52 weeks gratitude journal for kids
In 52 weeks Gratitude Journal for kids, I combines personal lessons and experiences as a mother on how to cultivate the attitude of gratitude.
It is a great inspiration for both boys and girls as the children are given an opportunity to write, draw or even fun-doodle three to five things they are grateful for weekly.
The favorite part is that the child gets to rate their levels of their happiness by circling an emoticon face. This may seem simple but it gives kids an opportunity to judge their emotions and express their feelings!

Scars Of A Nation: Survivor Of Kiamba...
Brief Summary
A true Story about victims of the 2007/08 Post election Violence in Kenya, their suffering and the search for their Justice at The International Criminal Court in The Hague, Netherlands. The lies, intrigues, machinations and skullduggery during the ICC process.
The author is a victim of the Kiambaa Church Massacre.
Quote from the book:
“Today, when you walk into the Kenya Assemblies of God Church in Kiambaa Eldoret, thirty-six graves are conspicuously visible. They stick out as a monument of that massacre - a powerful reminder of the consequences of prejudice, negative ethnicity, hate and the greed of a few individuals, who do not care that innocent citizens have to die from artificially generated conflicts, as long as this enables them to negotiate for political power, so as to satiate their individual greed, with ill-gotten wealth, and soothe their ego, with fame and prestige”
In Naivasha “the attackers came to the home of Mr. Bernard Ndege, a man from the Luo tribe, and locked his entire family inside their house then set it ablaze and killed nine of his children and two wives”
“having a President coming from your ethniccity is usually just a feel-good attitude only, and can be quite deceptive to think that one is privileged, because, it does not necessarily translate into tangible personal gains when ‘one of our own is the President’ Only a good governance system can guarantee equality for all”

Decolonising the Mind is a collection of essays about language and its constructive role in national culture, history, and identity.
The book, which advocates for linguistic decolonization, is one of Ngũgĩ’s best-known and most-cited non-fiction publications, helping to cement him as a pre-eminent voice theorizing the “language debate” in post-colonial studies.
Ngũgĩ describes the book as “a summary of some of the issues in which I have been passionately involved for the last twenty years of my practice in fiction, theatre, criticism, and in teaching of literature…” Decolonising the Mind is split into four essays: “The Language of African Literature,” “The Language of African Theatre,” “The Language of African Fiction,” and “The Quest for Relevance.”

1984 by George Orwell
The year 1984 has come and gone, but George Orwell's prophetic, nightmarish vision in 1949 of the world we were becoming is timelier than ever.
1984 is still the great modern classic of "negative utopia" -a startlingly original and haunting novel that creates an imaginary world that is completely convincing, from the first sentence to the last four words.
No one can deny the novel's hold on the imaginations of whole generations, or the power of its admonitions -a power that seems to grow, not lessen, with the passage of time.

THE ENLIGHTENED SPECIES: Traversing t...
THE ENLIGHTENED SPECIES is a book exploring the inter-dynamics that affect dating as an integral part of the human mating game. It delves into human behavioral patterns exhibited by the two genders right from the first stage of seduction. This brings to the limelight the conduct and rebuttal of every seduction attitude/action.
The woman is irrefutably the initiator of the first steps of seduction as seen in Briffault's Law. It is the woman who picks the desired male by considering some attributes in him. She then puts herself in a position where he can easily reach her—she is the advertiser in the seduction game while the man is a marketer.
He initiates the seduction game by pitching. Herein is a thorough analysis dissecting the cores of family genesis. Without seduction and mating, the family would be deemed obsolete and the human race would become extinct.
