The Land Is Dying: Contingency, Creativity and Conflict in Western Kenya - Epistemologies of Healing
Paul Wenzel Geissler
Based on several years of ethnographic fieldwork, the book explores life in and around a Luo-speaking village in western Kenya during a time of death: the epidemic of HIV/AIDS, which by the turn of the century had affected every aspect of sociality and pervaded villagers' debates about the past, the future and the ethics of everyday life.
