"The stories in Wind, Sand, Sky are short, but rich with meaning. Set on the East African archipelago of Zanzibar, these intimate portraits invite the reader to accompany characters navigating personal challenges within a rapidly changing terrain linked to socio-economic development, tourism, and even climate change. The book will be of interest to students of Swahili and East Africa, and more broadly those seeking to understand the cultural tensions and transformations associated with globalization. - Caitlyn Bolton, PhD Assistant Professor, Boston College
