Haughty Boys of Ngoroke
Haughty Boys of Ngoroke | Imali J Abala
1 post
Haughty Boys of Ngoroke Ayoyi's afterschool argument with his step-mother sets off an unpredictable series of intriguing misadventures. The subsequent meandering journey is one of choices between what is morally right and the lure of the 'attractive." Always a balancing act between what could be (success) and potential disaster, Ayoyi's life is a perpetual succession of dilemmas. The moral question of choices is central theme in this work. What others say 'It is funny. It is serious. It is realistic. Most importantly, it captures the imagination of its readers, not to mention the poignant moral lesson at the story's end.' " - Dr. Wilberforce Mundia, Professor of Religion & Philosophy, Shaw University " '" Haughty Boys of Ngoroke " is a witty story and those young at heart will definitely find the boys' misadventures hilarious, but paradoxically, unsettling.' " - Dr. Ebby S. Luvaga; Senior Lecturer, Iowa State University "

#africanlady makes me think of the most influential teacher I‘ve ever had. I graduated college 12 years ago, and I still think of Dr Abala often. Born in Kenya, the daughter of a minister, Dr Abala has written several books but more important than that, she facilitated discussions in a way that was truly impactful. She was never judgmental, and always heard all viewpoints in an open minded manner. #wanderingjune
