description

Acclaimed Somali writer Nuruddin Farah's non-fiction text is based upon a number of interviews to Somali refugees in four European nations historically close to his homeland - Italy, England, Sweden, Switzerland. Their voices intertwine, framed by that of the exile writer, providing a reconstruction of Somalia as a postcolonial nation first and a civil-war ridden failed state later.
