HER FIRST BALL KATHERINE MANSFIELD EXACTLY when the ball began Leila would have found it hard to say. Perhaps her first real partner was the cab.

called "My father’s head" by Okwiri Oduor‚ this story is colorful and a little complex. For me‚ it has a lot of lingoes that made the reading difficult. It’s about a woman called Simbi that seems to works as a maid in a retirement home‚ along with her friend Bwibo.
