On My TBR Pile: OROMAY by Baalu Girma
Share
I just added Oromay by Baalu Girma to my TBR pile, and I’m so intrigued by this one. It’s set in 1980s Ethiopia, during a time of war, betrayal, and espionage. The story is said to be gripping, emotional, and packed with political intrigue—exactly the kind of book I love getting lost in.
What makes it even more fascinating is the author’s story. Baalu Girma wasn’t just a writer; he was incredibly brave, using his work to critique the regime of his time. Knowing the risks he took makes this book feel even more important.
I can’t wait to dive in. Have you read Oromay? Let me know what you thought—or feel free to join me in picking it up.
