Today, more than 30 million trees have been planted throughout Mama Miti’s native Kenya, and in 2004 she became the first African woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.

Following the life and doings of Mama Zipporah, a modern day saint, Mother to the Motherless is the memoir of an incredible woman's inspiring true story of rising from the depths of abuse and poverty to found one of the most successful children's shelters in Kenya. The beginnings of Mama Zipporah's life were filled with violence and hardship, as the challenges of an abusive father and an uncaring society left Mama and her mother virtually without options. Without the support of the local church in those early days, Mama's life could have continued down this dark path; as it was, she and her mother had barely enough to get by. Mama grew to despise poverty and everything that it represented: the selfishness and greed of the wealthy, and the shocking effects it had on the poor. Devoting her life to eradicating poverty while refusing to accept it as simply a fact of life, Mama would come to establish the Huruma Children's Home in Kenya, a children's shelter that continues to perform the same function as the church did in Mama's youth: protecting the helpless children and teaching them to make the world a better place.

Binyavanga Wainaina tumbled through his middle-class Kenyan childhood out of kilter with the world around him.This world came to him as a chaos of loud and colourful sounds: the hair dryers at his mother's beauty parlour, black mamba bicycle bells, mechanics in Nairobi, the music of Michael Jackson - all punctuated by the infectious laughter of his brother and sister. He could fall in with their patterns, but it would take him a while to carve out his own. In this vivid and compelling debut, Wainaina takes us through his school days, his failed attempt to study in South Africa, a moving family reunion in Uganda, and his travels around Kenya.The landscape in front of him always claims his main attention, but he also evokes the shifting political scene that unsettles his views on family, tribe, and nationhood. Throughout, reading is his refuge and his solace. And when, in 2002, a writing prize comes through, the door is opened for him to pursue the career that perhaps had been beckoning all along. Resolutely avoiding stereotype and cliche, Wainaina paints every scene in One Day I Will Write About This Place with a highly distinctive and hugely memorable brush.

Cosa succede nella profonda Africa nel 2017? Come si vive, quali sono le problematiche vissute sulla pelle degli abitanti? Gianpaola, che già ci ha emozionati con il suo vissuto contenuto in “L'Amore che resta”, torna a parlarci e a farci battere il cuore. Forte della sua esperienza personale, ha saputo compiere delle scelte importanti, che l'hanno portata a fare la volontaria in Africa, e a fondare con Giovanni il movimento Kukua Pamoja per l'aiuto diretto ed efficace alla popolazione senza spese di intermediazione. In questo libro ci racconta in modo chiaro e palpitante le più disparate situazioni pratiche e concrete che si e trovata ad affrontare, in un libro veloce e pieno di contenuto che non può mancare di emozionare. Sono descritti anche i modi in cui sono stati risolti alcuni problemi o sono in via di risoluzione. Leggendo i suoi racconti non si riesce a non domandarsi cosa noi possiamo realmente fare per cancellare dal pianeta tutto questo, e ci si rende conto pienamente di quanto poco siamo a conoscenza di ciò che si vive oggi davvero nel continente africano. I proventi del presente libro andranno integralmente a Kukua Pamoja, neanche a dirlo.

Now a limited Netflix series starring Zoe Saldana! This Reese Witherspoon Book Club Pick and New York Times bestseller is “a captivating story of love lost and found” (Kirkus Reviews) set in the lush Sicilian countryside, where one woman discovers the healing powers of food, family, and unexpected grace in her darkest hours. It was love at first sight when actress Tembi met professional chef, Saro, on a street in Florence. There was just one problem: Saro’s traditional Sicilian family did not approve of his marrying a black American woman. However, the couple, heartbroken but undeterred, forged on. They built a happy life in Los Angeles, with fulfilling careers, deep friendships, and the love of their lives: a baby girl they adopted at birth. Eventually, they reconciled with Saro’s family just as he faced a formidable cancer that would consume all their dreams. From Scratch chronicles three summers Tembi spends in Sicily with her daughter, Zoela, as she begins to piece together a life without her husband in his tiny hometown hamlet of farmers. Where once Tembi was estranged from Saro’s family, now she finds solace and nourishment—literally and spiritually—at her mother-in-law’s table. In the Sicilian countryside, she discovers the healing gifts of simple fresh food, the embrace of a close knit community, and timeless traditions and wisdom that light a path forward. All along the way she reflects on her and Saro’s romance—an incredible love story that leaps off the pages. In Sicily, it is said that every story begins with a marriage or a death—in Tembi Locke’s case, it is both. “Locke’s raw and heartfelt memoir will uplift readers suffering from the loss of their own loved ones” (Publishers Weekly), but her story is also about love, finding a home, and chasing flavor as an act of remembrance. From Scratch is for anyone who has dared to reach for big love, fought for what mattered most, and those who needed a powerful reminder that life is...delicious.

Scoprii qual era la vera causa della mia malinconia, quando un giorno, Modou, con una certa freddezza, mi apostrofò: “Non fare domande: vivi!” E io di domande, purtroppo, me ne facevo sempre troppe. Soprattutto quando mi succedeva qualcosa di bello. Come se io non mi meritassi le cose belle. Come se io non mi meritassi di essere felice. Come se la mia felicità avesse bisogno di una spiegazione. Ogni volta. Domande a cui, poi, non sapevo mai dare una risposta. Forse è questo il segreto della felicità: smettere di farsi domande e viverla...
