This Our Exile recounts incredible stories of refugees who migrated to Nairobi from Rwanda, Somalia, Uganda, Sudan, Mozambique, and Ethiopia, blending their individual lives with reports on the political and social turmoil they fled. Martin takes us to remote and incredible places, from a teeming UN refugee camp in the dry lands of northern Uganda to a lonely chapel on the windswept coast of East Africa. In other, more lighthearted moments he recounts his own misadventures, and some of the more amusing aspects of adjusting to life in Nairobi.
