Product details
Meja and Maina arrive in the city confident their high school diplomas will lead to employment and success. However, they are unable to find jobs and they end up in the backstreets, withe the homeless poor. Brutally separated, they meet years later behind prison bars. This novel displays Mwangi's talent for writing lively stories depicting societal problems in Kenya.
Abstract:
Maina is no murderer. But the law does not know this. Only his dustbin mate Meja could tell them. But they are not likely to pay any serious attention to an inmate of Cell Nine. Meja has been to a secondary school but has failed to find a decent job. He has eaten from and slept in rubbish bins and fought with others for the privilege. He has learned a good few lessons they did not teach in school. He has realized that everybody tries to cheat you. He hasn't found one policeman who speaks his language. Above all he has learned that not all gutter rats are born in the dustbin and not all gutter rats will die in the gutter. -- from back cover.About the Author
