Tag: by Uwem Akpan

In my ‘inbox’ was a Oprah Newsletter speaking of the book, “Say You Are One of Them, by Uwem Akpan.”

Now I have heard this advertised so much, and I have requested the book at the library, but she had a free download.

If you go to her website, www.oprah.com there should be a spot for you to sign up for an online web cast, and on that site there is a place for you to download free a chapter of the book, An Ex-mas Feast.

I did this morning and read it.  It is truly amazing in its depth and to see dysfunction from the eyes of the children who live it.

Of course I relate to the oldest daughter. 

I would love to hear your response.  Email me at bjukuri@hotmail.com or comment on this post.
