Ngugi wa Thiongo (1938- ). Kenya. One of Africa's most accomplished and prominent novelists was born in 1938 in an area known at the time as the "White Highlands," part of the British-ruled Kenya Colony. This context proves important in his early novels, which deal with the dilemmas of growing up in two worlds: as a Kikuyu/African and a Westerner/Christian. He was educated at Makerere University in Kampala, Uganda, and the University of Leeds. His early works, Weep Not Child The River Between , and A Grain of Wheat , depict the conflict of cultures and the role of Christianity, English education, and the increasingly oppressive treatment of the Kikuyu and other Africans, whose land had been taken by the colonists. Ngugi taught at Makerere University, University of Nairobi, and Northwestern University. While at the University of Nairobi, he chose to write in his native Kikuyu to help revitalize indigenous languages. His subsequent writing, e.g. Petals of Blood , is critical of the corrupt politicians and other personalities of post-independence Kenya. Such politically charged writing led to his 1977 arrest and detention. After his release he went into exile, and was never reinstated as professor at the University of Nairobi. Ngugi remains in self-imposed exile, and taught at Yale University for several years before joining the faculty of NYU in 1993. (RN) Weep Not Child . 1964. London: Heinemann.

Study Guide Introduction One of Africa's most accomplished and prominent novelists was born in 1938 in an area known at the time as the "White Highlands," part of the British-ruled Kenya Colony. This context proves important in his early novels, which deal with the dilemmas of growing up in two worlds: as a Kikuyu/African and a Westerner/Christian. He was educated at Makerere University in Kampala, Uganda, and the University of Leeds. His early works, Weep Not Child, The River Between, and A Grain of Wheat, depict the conflict of cultures and the role of Christianity, English education, and the increasingly oppressive treatment of the Kikuyu and other Africans, whose land had been taken by the colonists. At the African Language Conference in Asmara (January 1, 2000) he stressed that African people need to reacquaint themselves with their places and languages of origin. The Kenyan novelist's decision to cease producing literary works in the English language as one of the inspirations of the conference. Biography Ngugi grew up during the 1950s' Mau Mau struggle for independence from British colonial rule, a major theme of his early work. His first work was a play, "TheBlack Hermit," written in 1962, which claimed to "speaks for a continent." It was followed by the novels such as The River Between (1965), about the divisive effects of the ban on female circumcision in the Christian community, A Grain of Wheat (1967), and Weep Not Child (1976), a simple and powerful tale of the

It’s a huge read but certainly worth the effort. It’s called Wizard of the Crow and is set in the fictional African republic of Aburiria, it tells the story of a ruler who has surrounded himself with comically sycophantic cabinet ministers. Put very simply it is a book about third world dictators – and how they have been nurtured by the West. His publishers are billing it as an African epic, and actually that’s not very far from the truth. Still, I prefer the author’s own description: ‘I would actually call it a global epic from Africa.’ he told me when I had the pleasure of meeting him recently. ‘I set it in a fictional country in Africa but its landscape and geography encompasses Asia, Africa, Europe, America and the Caribbean. It touches on all of those countries.’ I met him last week in a small restaurant in Soho. He was on a visit to promote his new book and I had been invited to interview him. I must say he is the most inspirational artist I have ever had the pleasure of spending time with. Of course, I knew what he’d been through in defence of freedom of speech and well, freedom of art. I was looking forward to meeting him, but I could never have predicted how charismatic and just plain inspirational he would be.

10. Ngugi Wa Thiongo (Kenya) Time Of The Writer Festival 2007 Worldacclaimed novelist, essayist, playwright, journalist, editor, academic and social activist Ng g wa Thiong o was born in colonial Kenya in 1938, http://www.ukzn.ac.za/cca/images/tow/TOW2007/bios/WaThiongo.htm

Ngugi Wa Thiongo (Kenya) wa Thiong'o's early works such as the play The Black Hermit (1962) and novels Weep Not Child The River Between (1965) and A Grain of Wheat (1969) eloquently depict the conflicts of the transition from colonialism to post-colonialism and have as one of their major themes the Mau Mau War of Independence, the central historical episode in the making of modern Kenya . wa Thiong'o‘s writing reflected a strong, principled and uncensored political voice. It was a voice that made him a threat to the Kenyan government under the Moi dictatorship. This came to a head in 1977, when wa Thiong'o's (co-written) political plays The Trial of Dedan Kimathi and Ngaahika Ndeenda I Will Marry When I Want ) and novel Petals of Blood - where he boldly denounced the inequalities, injustices and the abuses of power rampant in neo-colonial Kenya - led to his arrest, and imprisonment without trial. In prison, wa Thiong'o made his famous decision to abandon English as his primary language of creative writing and committed himself to writing in Gikuyu, his mother tongue. Following that decision, he wrote, on prison toilet paper, the novel, Caitani Mutharabaini (1981) translated into English as Devil on the Cross . After Amnesty International named wa Thiong'o a Prisoner of Conscience, an international campaign secured his release a year later. However, the Moi dictatorship barred him from jobs at colleges and universities in the country. He resumed his writing and his activities in the theater and in so doing, continued to be an uncomfortable voice for the Moi dictatorship.

Thursday, January 18, 2007 Lecture by Prof. Ngugi wa Thiongo For the first time in a very long time the renowned writer Prof. Ngugi wa Thiongo delivered a three day lecture at the University of Nairobi at his home country Kenya. His lecture focused on mainly three issues; Dis-membering Africa, which occurred during the days of colonization. Re-membering Africa, which occurred during the struggle for freedom from colonization. Remembering Africa, which is and on going process and is also the area he emphasized most. Africa has forgotten who it was before colonization. It seems Ngugi shares the same sentiments with me regarding the language used in Africa (see my previous post a letter to all Africans). He criticized the aspect that Africans, shy away from their indigenous languages viewing them as being backward. Indigenous languages are associated with the poor. As I reflected on his speech I realized African countries need to take some of his ideas seriously. Take for example the issue of illiteracy in most third world countries. If books were written in their indigenous languages we can be able to eliminate illiteracy and ignorance especially in the rural areas, or more specifically among the elderly. Why is it that everything in Kenya for example has to be taught or written in English? There are very few mathematics books written in Swahili, or any other language, in fact I am yet to see one.

Association of Concerned Africa Scholars ACAS Alert: Ngugi and Njeeri Wa Thiongo Wa Ngugi January 14, 2005 Dear Friends, As you may already know, world renowned Kenyan playwright, novelist and social critic Ngugi Wa Thiong'o and his wife Njeeri Wa Ngugi were brutally attacked on August 11, 2003 in an apartment in Nairobi, Kenya. Ngugi was severely beaten and burned with cigarettes, and his wife, Njeeri, was raped in the ordeal. Subsequently, several people were arrested in conjunction with the attack, and it is becoming increasingly clear that this was a politically motivated assault on a leading international intellectual and his wife. It was the first time that Ngugi had returned to his home country after 22 years of political exile. We are writing to ask you to take a few minutes of your time to send a letter to the addresses appended below to encourage the Kenyan courts and government to take this attack seriously, and to prosecute not only the direct attackers, but all those involved in the attack. This is not only an issue of paramount importance for political liberties and the rights of intellectuals. It is also a critical test case for overcoming a culture of silence and impunity surrounding violence against women in Kenya (and, in many ways, the world at large). We have included a letter, both in the body of this mail and as an attachment, that exemplifies the spirit of the pressure that we believe it is necessary to put on the Kenyan government to insure that these attacks are treated in the most appropriate and deliberate matter. We fear that without this pressure, the political forces behind this attack may go unpunished, and the issue of rape glossed over. A letter of any length, either in your own words or borrowing from the language of the one included here, would make an immense difference. Please send your letters to as many of the appended addresses as you wish and also forward our call to others who might want to join our efforts. If the Kenyan government in compelled to see the overall importance of this trial, we will win an overwhelming victory in our struggle against violence against women and for the rights of public intellectuals. Thank you for your time.

I see that politics and economics and spiritual life are connected. You cannot really divorce questions of wealth and power from questions of values and outlook in society so it's that connection which I'm interested in and which I try to explore in all my works.
