An important book, but not always an easy read. The social commentary is sharp, but the characters could have been more developed. It made me think, though.
Aryama Das –
I found it a bit slow to start, but once it got going, I was hooked. Wariinga’s resilience is inspiring, even in the face of so much adversity.

The satire is biting, and the story is engaging. Some parts felt a little dated, but the overall message is timeless. An interesting read.
Renuka Singh –
A powerful, if somewhat heavy-handed, critique of post-colonial Kenya. Wariinga’s story is compelling, but the symbolism can be a bit much at times. Still worth a read.
Ravneet Singh –
Ngugi’s passion shines through, though the narrative felt a little disjointed in places. The themes are incredibly relevant, even today. Provocative and thought-provoking!
Himanshu Gautam –

A bit dense, but ultimately rewarding. The exploration of capitalism’s impact is insightful. This is a good book to read if you want to challenge your views.
