Dunia
By Steve Mwase
$15.95 USD
Set in a past that parallels the present and future, this is a story about a land called Dunia mothering two races of people – the light-skinned and the dark-skinned. A large body of water bisects Dunia into two parts. Each part becomes a sovereign state at the center of cultural, spiritual, political and military rivalries caused by climate change.
At sunset a man climbed on top of a steep rock on the island of Dusampeal in the middle of the body of water. With the sun to his back, he stretched his right arm sideways, punched the air and announced, ‘This is south.’ He repeated the same drill with his left arm and added, ‘This is north.’
