Who will catch us as we fall / Iman Verjee. by Verjee, Iman. Oneworld Publications, 2016. Call #: FICTION VER Subjects Families -- Fiction.   Coming of age -- Fiction.   Race relations -- Fiction.   Nineteen nineties -- Fiction.   Nairobi (Kenya) -- Fiction. ISBN:  9781780749365 (trade pbk.) 1780749368 (trade pbk.) Description:  vi, 442 p. ; 22 cm. Summary:  Haunted by a past that has kept her from Nairobi for over three years, Leena returns home to discover her family unchanged: her father is still a staunch patriot dreaming of a better country; her mother is still an arch traditionalist, unwilling or unable to let go of the past; and her brother, always the rebellious one, spends his days provoking the establishment as a political activist. When Leena meets a local Kikuyu artist whose past is linked to her own, the two begin a secret affair one that forces Leena to again question her place in a country she once called home. Interlinked with Leenas story is that of Jeffery: a corrupt policeman burdened with his own angers and regrets, and whose questionable actions have unexpected and catastrophic consequences for those closest to him. Spanning a period of twelve years, Who Will Catch Us As We Fall is a gripping and epic story of love, loss and identity in contemporary Kenya. Genre:  Literary fiction.
