Reading List: East Africa and Sudan

3/2/2020

0 Comments

 
This February, I plan to read books from East Africa and Sudan, in sha Allah. I don't know if I will manage to read all of these but it's nice to have a selection. You will notice that Somalia dominates this list and that is because March's podcast episode will focus on Links ​by Nuruddin Farah, in sha Allah, and I want to get as much context and variety of perspective as I can.

For a worldwide book list arranged by region, click here.
  • Links by Nuruddin Farah (Somalia) - Novel
  • The Dragonfly Sea by Yvonne Adhiambo Owuor (Kenya) - Novel
  • Silence is my Mother Tongue by Sulaiman Addonia (Eritrea) - Novel
  • Season of Migration to the North by Tayeb Salih (Sudan) - Novel
  • The Orchard of Lost Souls by Nadifa Mohamed (Somalia) - Novel
  • The Sea-Migrations: Tahriib by Asha Lul Mohamud Yusuf (Somalia) - Poetry
