Promises, Power, Politics and Poverty
Dr. Banda's thirty-year rule was the subject of Lwanda's earlier book Kamuzu Banda of Malawi: a Study in Promise, Power and Paralysis, the first edition of which was in 1993. Now the small Southern African nation of Malawi has been a multiparty democracy since the first multiparty elections on 17 May 1994. The first multiparty dispensation, under the United Democratic Front's President Bakili Muluzi, experienced both startling successes and fantastic failures. Since then, the paralysing poverty has persisted, yet the once silent land is resonating with freedom of speech, free universal primary school education, an independent judiciary... The first incarnation of this book was written in 199...
Myth and reality of the missionary family
Isobel Reid offers a concise account of the origins, establishment, and some internal dynamics of the Livingstonia Mission, in particular those impacting missionary families as seen through the eyes of a young missionary couple at its Bandawe station. This study not only demonstrates a general awareness of the roie and initiative of the people of Northern Malawi, among whom and with whom the Scottish missionaries lived and worked, but also of the specific importance of interpersonal relationships between Scottish and Malawian women - as in the case of Marie Martin and her Tonga women friends. Race as the primary dividing line was thus subverted by mutual gender awareness. From 1978 Isobel Reid, a qualified nurse/midwife, with her doctor husband and young family lived for 18 months on Ekwendeni CCPA Mission Station before transferring to Mzuzu where Dr. Reid was in charge of St John's Roman Catholic Mission Hospital for four further years. A consequent academic interest in mission history resulted in an MTh (Edinburgh 1999) which provided the basis for this book.

Yoranivyoto
What keeps and attractive academic tied to the memory of a man she marries when he is about to die? What do people who have been jailed without trial have to say to one another and to posterity? What do they really long for as they languish in detention? What is love? How does it survive persecution? Has the last word been written about Dr Banda? What really brought him to power and how did he manage to wield it for so long? In this, his first novel, the poet Felix Mnthali tries to answer some of these questions asked here. He also gives us brief vignettes of his own life as well as sketches of the history of his beloved country of Malawi. ...constructed in a fascinating way, like a musical symphony, one tune leading into another, merging and accumulating a harmony or discord to form a satisfying whole, it certainly stands the 'test' of a literary work. Literature succeeds better than history in bringing to life the reality of that history. [Pat Bryden]
