Kusadikika: nchi iliyo angani [Kusadikika, a country in the heavens]
Description
An account of the resource
Kusadikika is the name of an imaginary country, based on the Swahili verb kusadiki (to believe). It is a satire on greed and the abuse of power that speaks for the common people who are not allowed to question anything but are only expected to believe (kusadiki). The plot deals with the conflict between individual rights and established authority, and represents at least a muffled critique of the colonial state. First published in 1951, Kusadikika predated the publication of the Swahili novel by nearly a decade and represents another of the contributions of Shaaban Robert to the Swahili literary canon. It continues to be one of the most frequently read works of Swahili literature and has been reissued in numerous reprint editions.

Description
An account of the resource
This work is the second installment of Robert’s autobiography, although it remains to this day the first to be published. He once wrote an autobiographical essay about his childhood and youth to the time of his marriage in 1936, but it has never been located. Hence, this edition on display here, in its original edition, covers the middle years of his life, from 1936 to the late 1940’s.
