A Life of Scene by Charles Chanchori
Looters and Grabbers by Joe Khamisi
This book is about unbridled corruption, bribery and scandalous financial skullduggery in one of Africa's most promising countries, Kenya.
It is a narrative of money-laundering, mega scandals, and international wheeler-dealing, and describes how Mafia-like lobbyists have been devouring the country's resources with blatant impunity over four regimes since independence in 1963.
It is an important resource for historians, students, researchers, social and political scientists, non-governmental organizations, development and anti-corruption agencies.
The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday
The Daily Stoic: 366 Meditations for Clarity, Effectiveness, and Serenity.
A beautifully packaged, gifty daily devotional of Stoic wisdom, from the author of The Obstacle is the Way.
Modern readers praise Stoic philosophy for its unique blend of practicality and wisdom. But it's admittedly hard for the average reader to decipher the Dover Thrift edition of Marcus Aurelius' work. The antiquated, needlessly formal language of most modern translations is stripped down in this book, revealing powerful aphorisms that cut straight to the heart of our day-to-day challenges.
Presented in a page-per-day format, this daily resource of Stoic inspiration combines new translations of Seneca, Epictetus, and Zeno by Stephen Hanselman with calls to further reflection--and action--by Ryan Holiday. Arranged topically following the same three movements (Perception, Action, Will) that Holiday used in The Obstacle is the Way, this guide features twelve principles for overcoming obstacles and achieving greater satisfaction.
Aimed at the high-octane, action-oriented, doers of our wired world, this book is intended to open to them a new daily ritual and a new orientation that will bring balanced action, insight, effectiveness, and serenity.
SHADOWS OF MAU MAU WAR by John Gathatwa
Set against the turbulent final years of colonial Kenya, Shadows of Mau Mau War is a powerful story of sacrifice, resilience, and the unbreakable determination of one man to secure a future for his family. Beneath the dark shadows of the Aberdare ranges, where fear, betrayal, and war gripped the land, Gatete wa Miano rises as a quiet pillar of strength in a nation struggling to be born.
As the Mau Mau conflict tears through villages and families, Gatete must navigate impossible choices, protect those he loves, and carry the immense burden of responsibility placed upon the African man during a time of upheaval. Every step he takes, every sacrifice he makes, becomes part of a legacy that will shape generations to come.
Rich in history, emotion, and cultural depth, Shadows of Mau Mau War is more than a story of war — it is a moving portrait of courage, family, identity, and the enduring human spirit in the face of darkness.

Dear Mama, I’m Still Healing
How Daughters of Wounded Women Are Learning to Break the Chain
By Andrew M. Kai
"You’re allowed to grieve a mother who’s still alive. You’re allowed to say: I needed more. I needed softer. I needed safe."
This book is for every daughter who was told to be quiet, to be grateful, to be strong — even when it was breaking her.
It’s for the ones who flinched when love came dressed in harshness.
For the ones who learned to apologize for needing too much.
For the ones who left, looked back, and still longed for a kind of mother they never knew.
Dear Mama, I’m Still Healing is a tender, unflinching journey into the heart of the mother wound. Blending storytelling, cultural insight, African proverbs, faith, and trauma-informed reflection, this book invites you to name what hurt you - not to stay in the pain, but to begin healing.

12 heartfelt chapters, including:
The Mother Wound
When Discipline Becomes Damage
Shame That Wasn’t Ours
The Sons We Raise, the Cycles We Break
The Letter Our Mothers Never Wrote
Cultural insights rooted in African traditions and global resonance
Non-dogmatic faith reflections for those who believe, question, or hold both
A benediction of grace to close the book with peace
Reflection prompts at the end of each chapter
Who This Book Is For:
Women healing from emotionally unavailable, abusive, or absent mothers
Adult daughters navigating complicated family ties
Mothers breaking intergenerational cycles
Therapists, coaches, and soul friends walking alongside others
Anyone carrying pain that has never been named.
“The mother wound is not your fault. But the healing? That’s your sacred inheritance.”
