“Brimming with insouciant virtuosity…Wainaina’s Africa is not all glamorous poverty and backlit giraffes. It’s an Africa in which the lost are perpetually leading the blind, and yet somehow still find their way home.”

New York Times Book Review

Caine Prize winner Binyavanga Wainaina took the literary world by storm with his groundbreaking memoir One Day I Will Write About This Place, a New York Times Notable Book and a Publishers Weekly Top Ten Book of the Year. From his middle-class Kenyan childhood to the writing prize that finally enabled him to write full-time, Wainaina offers a stunning portrayal of his family, tribe, and country-and of the shifting political scene that so influenced all of his experiences.
