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.

Kurwa na Doto: maelezo ya makazi katika kijiji cha Unguja, yaani Zanzibar [Kurwa and Doto: a story of life in a Zanzibar village]
Description
An account of the resource
This is a “local color” novelette that is another very early work of Kiswahili prose. In its depiction of life in a typical Zanzibari village, it is perhaps more informative of local customs than of notable literary value. The two main characters, Kurwa and Doto, are sisters who look very much alike but are diametrically opposite in their characters and lifestyles. The plot that unfolds between them centers on the conflict between traditional and modern values.
