Exclusive for TILB Readers: Letters from Africa




Guys, The PigeonHole just launched a new digital book that gets delivered to your mobile every week - Letters from Africa - and they are giving an exclusive offer to TILB readers.



Over the next ten weeks, correspondents Tolu Ogunlesi (Lagos), Tom Mboya (Nairobi), Tawanda Mudzonga (Harare), and Tilly Kingston (Cairo) will send weekly dispatches about everyday things in their cities: family, fun, the daily commute, education, sexism, ethnic tensions, the arts and corruption, as well as on-the-ground updates on the Nigerian and Egyptian elections.



And the good news is you can get the exciting new digital book, Letters from Africa (published by The Pigeonhole), delivered straight to your phone for free (normal price $5).



Here is a quote from the first letter by Tolu Ogunlesi:



“Lagos is a place of freedom; freedom to decide whether a red light means the same as a green light, to decide in what direction to proceed along a road marked ‘one way’. The freedom to decide just how much time you’d like to spend in a police station, should you find yourself there; the freedom to set your own laws and limits and negotiate around other people's own. The freedom to surrender or to fight back; to run away so you get the chance to fight another day.”

With this link Laila’s Blog readers can read the whole book for free on The Pigeonhole:
