New at KMS Shop – The Masai – Tribe of Warriors by Jonathan and Angela Scott

The Masai have a reputation for courage, independence and a way of life that fits well with their surroundings – the grasslands of the East African plains.
Many years ago in Africa, a warlike race of unusually tall, slim people travelled the Nile into what is now Kneya and Tanzania. They were the Masai – the people who speak the Maa language. Whereever they went, they were respected for their courage and strength as warriors. Even today, the Masai are still famous for their independence, their pride in traditions and their way of life.
Get your copy today and read more on Masai people, their cultures – especially to the modern times.

Dreams in a Time of War – A Childhood Memoir

Dreams in a Time of War – A Childhood Memoir
by Ngugi wa Thiong’o

In Dreams in a Time of War, Ngugi skillfully etches a bygone era, bearing witness to the social and political vicissitudes of life under colonialism and war.
It gives it’s readers an unforgettable sense of another time, a country and a continent in the middle of change – a small child learns to hold onto his dreams, even in a time of war. Luminously evokes Kenya on the cusp of independence… this memoir is suffused with affecting evocations of time and place, as well as a touching reminder that dreams can be true.
A son of a man whose four wives bore him more than a score of children, young Ngugi displayed what was then considered a bizarre thirst for learning, yet it was unimaginable that he would grow up to become a world-renowned novelist, playwright and critic.
Available now @ KMS Shop for Ksh 1,150

Other books by Ngugi Wa Thiong’o includes; Wizard of the Crow, Petals of Blood, Devil on the Cross, Decolonizing the Mind among others.
