Karibu Zanzibar

Both evocative and magical, Zanzibar offers travellers the quintessential Indian Ocean experience; palm fringed coastlines, powder- white sand, and colourful aquatic life.Passionate about detail, Chris and Susan McIntyre have carried out extensive on-the-ground research in producing this updated edition.

Kila kitu huwa na chanzo na khatima; basi ni nini chanzo cha mitafaruku hiyo na khatima yake ilikuwaje? Simulizi ni juu ya baba, Bw. Ahmed, mwenye hasira kali zisizo na mipaka, aliyeongoza familia yake kwa utashi wa nafsi yake, bila kujali hisia za mkewe wala wanawe. Kumbe moyoni mwake alihifadhi siri, na hiyo siri ndiyo iliyomfanya Bw. Ahmed kuwa mkali bila kiasi, ikimsukuma azuie kurejea kwa yale yaliyomfika zamani. Lakini kivuli cha historia ya maisha yake ya nyuma hakikuacha kumuandama. Riwaya hii i meandikwa kwa lugha nzuri na fasaha, kwa ufundi wa msanii makini na mwelewa wa maisha ya jamii za Kizanzibari na za mwambao kwa jumla.
