About the Book

When Daniel, a young law student from a modest rural background, and Eseza, a talented architect from a prominent political family, meet at their university in the capital of an African state, their mutual attraction is instantaneous. They want to marry; but first they must negotiate the complex question of their respective families' attitudes towards the match. And beneath that lies a still more intractable problem. What will be the consequences of Eseza's marrying a human rights activist? Her father is the Permanent Secretary for Finance, serving with honour, but in an administration which is both corrupt and authoritarian. Daniel and Eseza's marriage is no longer a private affair, it seems, but one which carries a whole series of political implications. It is a match whose celebration, in the teeth of furious opposition from the police, may even turn out to have revolutionary effects.

About the Author :
Sam Aisu was born in Pallisa, Kakoro-Uganda. A teacher at King's College, Budo, and later Country Director with a London-based International NGO, ACORD. He then moved on to work as Focal Person for Civil Society and Human Rights in the European Union in Uganda. His two earlier plays, performed at the National Cultural Centre, received acclaim from literary critics. He also presented his poems at the London Theatre.

Review :
Sam Aisu tells the story of the deterioration of a political leadership that systematically shrinks from the vibrant, noble, idealistic phase of genesis, to the revelation of the final unabashed corruption in all its stinking manifestations. Aisu tells the tale in a style that is comfortable, accommodating and even friendly. He is not the confrontational and antagonistic radicalism of political activist, not to spread hate rhetoric. He is not the demagoguery student of exposition of opposition. He is not the belligerent assault on the perceived oppression and injustice chocking the populace of the island. He is rather the gentle finger of satire, urging a diplomatic discourse, in which the writer story teller gives room to the reader's own fertile imagination of what the story is telling and where the story is leading. In this Aisu succeeds enormously in carrying his readers with him on a lovely flight of fancy; on his journey of an exciting tale. - Justice James Ogoola (Former Deputy Chief Justice of Uganda) "It is a master piece........ It should be a literature set book" - Dr. Livingstone Sewanyana, United Nations Independent Expert on the promotion of a democratic and equitable international order.
