Pebbles in the sand: Is a love story that started in Mombasa at the beach of Bamburi.
(ContentDesk) May 20, 2006 -- Pebbles in the sand: Author KarunkarThis love story that started in Mombasa Kenya, on the beach of Bamburi. Two teenage lovers found love so deep that nearly destroyed them. A lot of Swahili is spoken and explained. A love that lived in hope and ended in tragedy. A love that was betrayed because of culture difference.
This love story describes the clashes in culture. It is illustrated beautifully. Forty years was a bit too much for a tragedy of love to last. It makes any person with a weak heart to weep. The language of Kenya is illustrated very clearly and explained in English.
The public will enjoy reading this lovely romantic novel. The hero must have gone through hell. He should have listened to his best friend. Their lust for love overtook all odds. If they had the opportunity, would they have taken it?The two loves had lived in hope of finding each other; did they really try? They could have tried harder.
The girl was very hollow...
