East Africa is the home of World's refugees.The presence of Kakuma, Ifo and Daadab refugee camps in Northern Kenya is testament to this fact. This book delves into how John Ruganda, a playwright from Uganda conceives the exile and refugee crisis in the region for the period he lived and died in East Africa, first as an ordinary citizen and later a refugee. The book examines the causations, patterns of displacement and vision from an artistic, rather than a plainly sociological view. It also sees the East African Exile-Writer as a chronicler of personal autobiography.
