In a literary reversal as deadly serious as it is wickedly satiric, this novel by the acclaimed French-speaking African writer Abdourahman A. Waberi turns the fortunes of the world upside down. On this reimagined globe a stream of sorry humanity flows from the West, from the slums of America and the squalor of Europe, to escape poverty and desperation in the prosperous United States of Africa. It is in this world that an African doctor on a humanitarian mission to France adopts a child. Now a young artist, this girl, Mala ka, travels to the troubled land of her birth in hope of finding her mother--and perhaps something of her lost self. Her search, at times funny and strange, is also deeply poignant, reminding us at every moment of the turns of fate we call truth.Binding Type: Paperback

Great vest
Size: 12, Color: Black
Great vest. I love the slim fit. It looks very nice on my son, not baggy or boxy looking like some vest. My son has used it for several occasions including a wake, a Beta Club induction, awards day, and soon his graduation celebration at church. The quality and material are good. Definitely worth what I paid.

Elegant Color and Very Well Made Vest
Size: 14, Color: Light Grey, Size: 14, Color: Light Grey
The vest is really nice and great quality, but it does run a little smaller than expected. I would suggest sizing up if you want a more comfortable fit. Other than that, it looks very sharp and well made.
