Awuor Ouma: Face Me, Darling. Life is a Story - story.one, Gebunden

Klappentext

Four strangers meet in the tight benches of a Kenyan train compartment. A feminist speaker traveling to a conference, a man marked by betrayal and domestic violence, a young widow chasing the promise of love abroad, and an old man carrying a wooden cage that rattles with memory, each enters the journey with a private weight.

As the train moves across the plains, the boundaries of class, gender, and silence begin to crack. Through fragments of laughter, parables, and confessions, secrets surface that none of them intended to share. They never ask for names, and when the train reaches its destination they part as strangers. Yet each carries away an imprint, as if the journey itself demanded more than their tickets.

Set against the backdrop of modern Kenya, Face Me Darling is a haunting exploration of transience, hidden scars, and the truths we entrust to those we will never see again.
