Hop, Skip & Jump: A reflection on the book (with Scholar V. Akinyi) - EPISODE 151
Description
In this emotionally moving episode, I sit down with award-winning writer Scholar V. Akinyi, author of Hop, Skip and Jump. This novel explores the impact of Kenya’s 2007/08 post-election violence through the eyes of three adolescent neighbours. Scholar opens up about the emotional journey behind her writing, sharing how storytelling has been a profound tool for processing trauma, healing, and finding resilience.
Our conversation is a mix of lighthearted giggles and raw, heartfelt moments, as Scholar reflects on the personal and collective trauma woven into her novel. If you miss out on this inspiring episode filled with insights, vulnerability, and hope, IT'S ON YOU.
