This was a sad book, I remeber reading this on the train into work one day. It was really powerful, I decided to finish it before I went into work. Sat at the station for an hour reading it before turning up to late work
books by abdulrazak gurnah
Desertion....is set in Mombasa as well so is extra good. Also the protaganist shares his name with my surname. Was kinda freaked when I read the back cover.
Except for the Qu'ran what's a book that's changed your life?
Hmmm...why's ur blog able to figure out my real name. Spooky.

Blogger seems to want to reveal our Schizophrenia happened to me to, on my own blog!

Sat at the station for an hour reading it before turning up to late work
the stations such a nicee place to read.. evn though i've prolly just sat there for 10 min to read lol..
hmm.. I had no idea who Abdulrazaq Gurnah was until this summer in Zanzibar. I came across 2 signed books by him at my aunts house..but by that time I'd started reading a copy of my aunt's 'memoirs of an arabian princess'.. which I still have to complete
the online version of arabian princess is available here. It's quite good..
