The Prophets Camel Bell by Margaret Laurence

When Margaret Laurence set out for Somaliland with her engineer husband in 1957, she confronted the difficulty of communication between peoples of vastly different cultures. Yet she came to know the skilled orators, poets and craftsmen of the country, and to share the vision of a people’s struggle for survival in a barren land.


I really enjoyed this book. I liked the way she told the stories of the people they met during their time in Somaliland.
