The small things
A lifetime of paying attention.
Nairobi
The city itself. Matatus, jacarandas, courtyards, and the people who run them.
Written in motion
Notebooks before laptops.
The geometry of Nairobi mornings
There is a geometry to Nairobi mornings that nobody talks about. The matatu routes form a web across the city.
The matatu notebooks
Start filling notebooks on the Number 33. Every morning, every evening. The passengers become characters.
Born in Eastlands, Nairobi
Third of five children. The noisy one.
