Więcej o książce
'Alive, artistic, colourful and real.' This book will pick you up, swirl you round and immerse you in the Ethiopia of the 1980s. With its Eskista beats, coffee ceremonies, friendships and laughter, its mountains and fireside encounters, its loudspeakers in markets and fruit and veg stalls in Piazza. Based on real-life experiences, these are the intertwining stories of Ashebir and Izzie. A boy growing up in the northern highlands and a young English woman finding her feet on the streets of Addis Ababa. As the worlds they each know fall away, both must embark on a search for who they really are. It is a story of the pain of loss and the power of hope. The deep rupture of separation and the healing of reunion. And the story of a mother and her son in the shadow of the white hyena. Proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to projects supporting the health, welfare and livelihoods of rural women traders in Ethiopia.
