Description

"The stories in Wind, Sand, Sky are short, but rich with meaning. Set on the East African archipelago of Zanzibar, these intimate portraits invite the reader to accompany characters navigating personal challenges within a rapidly changing terrain linked to socio-economic development, tourism, and even climate change. The book will be of interest to students of Swahili and East Africa, and more broadly those seeking to understand the cultural tensions and transformations associated with globalization.
- Caitlyn Bolton, PhD Assistant Professor, Boston College
"Wind, Sand, Sky by Marc Eichen is an incredibly thoughtful, unique and special bilingual English- Swahili work of art that both English and Swahili audiences will not only find thrilling, but also superbly depicting some segments of the Swahili-speaking society and cross-cultural engaging - a bonus for Kiswahili students as a sample source that intrinsically integrates the World-Readiness Standards for Learning Languages five goal areas (5 Cs): Communication, Cultures, Connections, Comparisons, and Communities.
- Charles Bwenge, PhD
Instructional Professor of African Languages, University of Florida

PREFACE

You can anticipate and plan. And plan you should. Don’t forget Pringles for the trip, the gifts for your friends, the printer, the hair conditioner for RM. But you should know your plans will only take you to the shore. At some point, you will have to step off into the river. You will have to feel where the currents want to take you. And you will have to swim.

- fromTo Die and Live in Zanzibar 25 March 2016

From its very inception a book of fiction like this one written by a visitor always raises questions about cultural appropriation. Who has the right to write about Zanzibar Tanzania Africa? Putting aside my own history in Zanzibar my current thinking about this 1 2 question follows cues from Alexander Chee and Andrew Wille.
