“Book Descriptions: Award-winning author and human rights activist Ishmael Beah brings us The Door to Tamba, a powerful story centered on a mining village in West Africa where the destruction of earth and pollution of life impacts the mind, body, and soul of communities. Hindolo, a storyteller, returns to his hometown after 30 years and recalls the solitary and formidable old man who opened his home to him and introduced a world of literature and imagination, which for many years was his only escape. Hindolo begins writing the stories down on paper stolen from a nearby mine to share with his classmates. "We will be stealing," he remembers one of his old friends exclaiming. "They are already stealing from us anyway," Hindolo responds. A thought-provoking story that returns to the basics of fiction and freedom.” DRIVE
