Detailed item info

Synopsis
From a Somalian writer, this is the story of Jeebleh, a professor living in New York who returns to his home city of Mogadiscio to take care of family business. The city is in turmoil, with two warring factions that have made the place into a hell of terrorism and mob rule. Jeebleh fears for his own life as he makes his way around a city that has become unfamiliar to him, looking up old friends and trying to find out--to his horror--what was really behind the death of his mother. And the longer he stays, the more he realizes that while he may have left his homeland behind, much of it remains with him.

Publisher's Note
Returning to Mogadiscio, Somalia, from New York after a twenty-year exile, Jeebleh finds a troubled and devastated city ruled by clan warlords and patrolled by violent gangs of thugs, as he works to settle his late mother's outstanding accounts and aids an old friend whose youngest child has been abducted.
