Summary:
"Dream of Kemet is a novel based on African magic realism and mental illness from an African perspective. When Chawe leaves his dream job in Sweden to pursue his dreams as an artist in France, little does he know that his ambitions will lead him back to the African continent in search of and discovery of magic. I Dream of Kemet is about the discovery of the hidden aspects of African culture which are often passed down from one generation through storytelling in the verbal tradition and thus often get lost in translation. I Dream of Kemet is also a story about the tribulations of man and how, through difficulty, there are often hidden opportunities to discover magic.-- Back cover.
