5.0 out of 5 stars Maitu ni Ma Iitu, March 17, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Maitu ni Ma Iitu (Our Mother is Our Truth) (Audio CD)
Fifteen poems written and spoken in Gikuyu by Kenyan Gatua wa Mugwa take me back to his homeland, a place that I love. The CD is beautifully produced, including the music background and a full color booklet with the poems and explanatory material in both Gikuyu and English. The cover pictures Mr. wa Mbugwa with Mt. Kenya in the background. Although I do not share nation, race, or Gikuyu identity with the artist, these readings resonate in a universal way and take me home to "Maitu" - Mother Kenya.

This review is from: Maitu ni Ma Iitu (Our Mother is Our Truth) (Audio CD)
As a young Kikuyu man, I find the poems invaluable and would recommend the CD to others. It's just the sought of thing that my grandpa would have shared around the fire. Gatua does it with more flair!
