Program Title: Dinaw Mengestu-All Our Names-Bookbits author interview
Description: “All Our Names” by award-winning novelist Dinaw Mengestu, is the story of two young men who long for political change in Africa. Years later one of them, perhaps named Isaac (hence the title), arrives in the American mid-west trying to leave behind the violence and destruction which followed their failed revolution. But the man Helen, a social worker, meets and eventually falls in love with, is haunted by his past, his failures and even his own name.
