To Immigrate Or To Live Happily Ever After?
The Dilemma
Yungsi Ernest Kiyah
$9.99 Paperback
… a voracious quest for immigration woven with a touch of romance, and the intrigues, trick and huddles of being a black in a white world; Kiyah’s journalistic style, his understanding of socio-cyber fraud phenomena, and his keen and sensitive artistic mind and arty vim result in a story that keeps the reader edgy to know what happens next…
When Dave is denied a visa to the USA twice, his desire to immigrate amplifies rather than declines. The 9/11 attacks on the United States dashes Dave’s hopes which had turned to the au pair program as an alternative route. China offers a much needed possibility through an employment link, but the life-style of people that surround him keeps Dave in a wonderland imagination - Spencer believes ardently in online romance… Randal gets to know that being black is not the (re)solution of/to his multiple problems… Dockie (a name that symbolizes his trade) is rewarded by the Law of Karma… Annette turns an internet scam into a fruitful relationship but does she walk through placidly? A letter from Kentucky turns Dave’s dream to an achievable vision. Enthralled by his love to Araisha (the daughter of an Armenian con man) will Dave seek a loving romantic marriage, or satisfy a life-long quest? The dilemma is evoked at the very beginning of the novel proverbially …

TO ERR IS DIVINE: Sonnets From Maroua
$8.00 (Paperback)
... a read that is refreshing and indictive, provocative and controlled, all at the same breath! I bet you it is the pioneer poetic record of the nascent Maroua University in the poet’s incisive address of the intellectual, moral & material crises of its controversial inception and operation. It also engages an audacious autobiographical poetics that not only reads the prism, but dissects by naming its colours by their true hues. In aspects of genre the poet takes us on a North-bound trip casting characteristic glimpses of travel literature that puts the places, peoples & cultures of the Sahel into a healthily debatable perspective!
