A family living in a makeshift shanty in urban Kenya scurries to find gifts of any kind for the impending Christmas holiday. A Rwandan girl relates her family’s struggles to maintain a facade of normalcy amid unspeakable acts. A young brother and sister cope with their uncle’s attempt to sell them into slavery.

Through the eyes of childhood friends the emotional toll of religious conflict in Ethiopia becomes viscerally clear."--Container. Genre:  Short stories. Black fiction. Adult books on CD.
