Imagine flying across the world to meet a first time author! This is what a Jamaican man named Mr. Hassan Saleem did. He flew from Fiji, where he now resides, to a London book fair to meet Robert Lalah, a fellow Jamaican.
Lalah's book is titled Roving with Lalah: Slices of Everyday Jamaican Life and it is available at Ian Randle Publishers. I also have enjoyed the column in the Gleaner about Roving with Lalah. I know the book will be a big hit among the Jamaican diaspora.
This blog is for book lovers. Initially this blog focused on the books selected by members of the Okefenokee Book Club who used to meet in Waycross, Georgia. Now, it is about my reading interests. I will also continue to post any interesting information related to writers, libraries, and book clubs in general.
