This month, on Talking Books Africa
We will be discussing The Last Gift by Abdulrazak Gurnah, the Tanzanian-British author and 2021 Nobel Laureate.
A 2011 novel by Nobel Prize winner Abdulrazak Gurnah, The Last Gift explores themes of immigration, family secrets, and cultural identity through the story of an immigrant from Zanzibar named Abbas. After suffering a series of strokes, Abbas is forced to confront the past he has hidden from his wife, Maryam, and their children, Jamal and Hanna.
