A Return to Blogging
It's been a while since I updated this blog, but I remember the great days of discovering writers, especially African writers. Early on, these pages celebrated each newly discovered African writer; and I would make predictions such as, this is the moment for African writers. Ever since, some of these writers are now big names on the world stage. And I can repeat: this again is the time for the African writer. I am currently reading two memoirs by African writers which I plan to review here, books by my professor at UZ Francis Matambirofa and Ugandan writer Ber Anena, whom I felt met at the African Writers Conference in Berlin, when she rendered a memorable, star-style poetry reading! The two have produced memoirs that are making me return to book reviewing and to blogging!
