Interview to Akoli Penoukou, author of the book No easy road to survival
How much time have you been writing? Why did you start writing?
I wrote my first novel (an autobiography) just out of High School in 1974 from sheer inspiration and on the lines of Camara Laye’s African Child. I called it The Way It Went. It’s still unpublished. But I have been writing seriously since 1985 after finishing a writer’s course.
I started writing to tell the world about my life, how it had begun brightly but then strangely went awry in 1974.
How should we begin to read this book?
One can begin to read the book from the beginning to the end or choose individual stories since they don’t follow any pre-determined order.
But those who are interested in stories about Family and Love can read: “A Tale of Two Suitors,” “Beyond the Forbidden Borders,” “Gone with the Man,” “An Ancestral Spoke in the Family Wheel,” “Blessed are the Meek and Mild,” “Busy Bee,” “Either Business or Nothing,” “Love One Another,” “Ms Maryann Loses,” “Living in Yesterday’s Bliss,” “I Love Mine,” “If You Have Nothing to Do,” and “The Day I Escaped Madness.” Leer más Interview to Akoli Penoukou, author of the book No easy road to survival
