Passing Through the World: a Story of Childhood, Curiosity and Perplexity Amin George Forji

Forji has the magical knack of showing the world as it appears through the eyes of a young person. His words first introduce the reader to Cameroon's diverse society as an infant sees it; and then we peer with him through the anxious lens of adolescence. Forji's is an authentic Cameroonian voice that helps the reader understand how things were for a youngster in his country in the 1980s and 1990s.
