The Lion Roars in the Savannah: Muruthi Urikurarama Weruini / Simba Ameguruma Porini (International Poetry)

The Lion Roars in the Savannah (Muruthi Urikurarama Weruini / Simba Ameguruma Porini), by Bob Mwangi Kihara, is an trilingual book (English, Gikuyu, Kiswahili), appearing in the GreenLine Collection of the NoteBook Poiesis label, co-published with Cross-Cultural Communications (2024). “The collection presents a down-to-earth homily, in poetic form, about the importance of morality, a reverence for the past and an honest assessment of success. It has taken folktales and traditional riddles and transformed them into poetry that speaks to modern readers, reminding them of the ‘richness in wisdom and values’ found in the foothills of Mt. Kenya, the majestic seat of the God of the Agikuyu people.” —Arthur Dobrin, author of Gentle Spears, Sunbird, and Seeing Through Africa.
