I Shall Return

by Nehemiah Tonui · ISBN 9798171125783

Fifteen-year-old Bore dreams of escaping poverty through education, but unpaid fees threaten to end his schooling in Menet Village. His mother’s sacrifices are undermined by his father’s neglect, leaving his future dependent on determination and the kindness of teachers and neighbours. As each opportunity brings fresh obstacles, Bore holds fast to his faith in God and his promise to change his family’s circumstances. His journey explores perseverance, community generosity, and the desire to turn hard-won opportunities into service to others.
