The Last Bush Faller

- Saga in the Diaspora

Bag om The Last Bush Faller

Told by Dr. Jobias Yengheh himself, "The Last Bush Faller" chronicles his adventurous and somewhat turbulent life in the United States. As an immigrant from Kamuun, Africa, in search of greener pastures, expectation and reality become the uncomfortable bedmates that he grapples with each passing day. His predicament directly correlates with hope and despair that have characterized most second and third generation African immigrants in the New World. Jobias' determination to make it despite the odds is a challenge. However, the question that looms in the air is whether his ultimate sacrifice of family and job back home to scoop manna in the Diaspora is worth the salt. This powerfully evocative story will rack readers with guilt and sorrow; plunging them into a river of worry, and then letting the current sweep them to the ocean
