BORN AT THE END OF THE WORLD

ABOUT THE BOOK

     Born at the End of the World is a historical fiction novel inspired by my parents’ experiences during Ethiopia’s Red Terror. It is available for preorder worldwide, with a special early release in Nairobi.

     All my life, my parents have shared their experiences during the Red Terror in Ethiopia and Eritrea in the 1970s.  It is only as an adult that I realized how unique their story is, and the many ways it is not. They had many near-death experiences in their fight for freedom. Their unwavering courage, resilience, and belief in an intangible hope are things I continue to be in awe of every day.

     I am grateful to the community that has supported this work alongside me and to those who continue to create space for stories rooted in place, memory, and humanity.
