KUMSAA BOROO:
Jiruu fi Jireenya Life and TimesKumsa Boro
This book presents the life and times of Reverend Kumsa Boro and a selection of his lifetime collection of Oromo folklore and cultural songs, compiled, organized, and edited by his children. Rev. Kumsa’s life spans a tumultuous century of Oromo history in general and the reality of Sayyo Oromo in particular. As a microcosm of the broader Oromo reality, Rev. Kumsa’s story is riddled with intense moments of oppression, persecution, courage, and defiance. Others have written about his religious persecution before. What makes this book special, however, is that Rev. Kumsa presents an incredible historical depth

A CREOLE EXPERIMENT
Utopian Space in Kamau Brathwaite’s “video-style” Works by Melanie Otto
In A Creole Experiment, Melanie Otto examines the utopian aspect of Brathwaite’s major “video-style” works while employing the concepts of Heimat (homeland) and “concrete utopia,” which were developed by philosopher Ernst Bloch in The Principle of Hope. She also focuses on Brathwaite’s interrogation and reinterpretation of the conventions of magical realism. Unlike mainstream Latin American magical realism, Brathwaite’s work is radical in both form and content, developing a distinctly creole aesthetic. In addition, Otto notes that Brathwaite’s vision of a “creole cosmos” does not refer to an ideal place. Instead, it reveals the tangibility of an often dismal day-to-day existence.

A HISTORY OF TIGRINYA LITERATURE IN ERITREA
The Oral and Written 1890-1991Ghirmai Negash
Negash’s continental and international visibility is very clear. He earned this through his monumental work, A History of Tigrinya Literature in Eritrea: The Oral and Written 1890-1991. In the sheer ambition of its historical sweep and the combination of Literature and Orature for its subject, it is groundbreaking while also making an important intellectual intervention in the study of African language literatures. Nothing of this magnitude has been accomplished with the same degree of unapologetic scholarly commitment and respect. In addition to establishing him as the leading scholar of Eritrean literature, it has paved the way for similar scholarship in Africa.

A NATION BETRAYED
Nigeria and the Minorities Commission of 1957by Michael Vickers
The 1950s were traumatic years for the British. A mighty Empire was in its death-throes. But for Africans these were years of immense exhilaration, of great expectations. Independence was within close reach. And in Nigeria, it was accepted that it should come quickly. But there was a problem. Nigeria’s minorities, peoples—comprising about 40 per cent of the country’s population—profoundly feared for their future
