Bok av Essayias Lesanu Bezabeh
Written with such clarity for every passing moment of his travel from DC to Addis Ababa and to Axum, Essayias opens up the discussion about Ethiopia in this book. After 30 years of exile, he visited and had an opportunity to see his motherland. It was one of the wonderful experience and as an author he spur conversation with his readers with his book. This book is the must read. And it appeals to us on many levels. Our yearning for freedom and expansion, a need for companionship, and the protection of a common identity of being Ethiopia. The book reminds us that while change is constant, progress is slow and difficult. It evokes a strong need to see our country in differnt light. Also compelled us to explore the biggest humanity.
