Saba's Two-Year Hiatus

More about the book

Saba, whose name in Swahili means "seven," the figure of completeness, must wrestle with reconciling the ideal of his name with the reality of his life's outlook. His ambitions will drive him to quit his career for a new job he's never done before. His love interest will test the limits of his patience. As for his acquaintances, they will have anxieties and deep desires of their own. This book explores the journey that takes Saba, professionally unfulfilled and emotionally deprived, from the heart of Africa to America and beyond in pursuit of a new career, love, and meaning.
