Farah, Nuruddin Maps
Pan Books 1986 0-330-28710-9 / 9780330287104 Paperback Very Good
Though he has lived in exile for the last 20 years, Nuruddin Farah's eye ne ver strays far from his native Somalia. In Maps and Secrets, the first and third volumes in his Blood in the Sun trilogy, he explored the devastating effects of tribal hatred and civil war on his society; the middle volume, G ifts, however, is of a different stripe altogether. Though also set in Soma lia, it is a sunnier, more optimistic novel, and a love story, to boot. The protagonist is Duniya, a nurse at a maternity hospital in Mogadishu. Once widowed and once divorced, she has experienced the injustices heaped upon w omen in her culture--as a young girl Duniya was given by her father to an e lderly man to be his wife; after his death she remarried, only to have her child taken from her by her alcoholic husband's family when they divorced. Free at last, she has no intentions of getting entangled again--until she m eets Bosaaso, an American-educated economist who has returned to Somalia to help his country during its economic crisis: Duniya thought that marriage was a place she had been to twice already, but love was a palace she hadn't had the opportunity to set foot in before now. If what she and Bosaaso wer e doing was the beginning of a long courtship that might eventually lead to such a many-roomed mansion of love, so be it.
