ABOUT THE BOOK
“I have always believed that many lessons are found within our proverbs, because each proverb seems to so ably translate its particular character and quality into a brief and simple lesson of what is learnable from our world. I have long relied on proverbs to ‘keep me awake’, not wanting to sleepwalk through life’s experiences without the benefit of the many insights from our human experience. This book is an effort to share these insights with others, to enjoy the rhythm and the reason if you will, of our traditional wisdom.” – Mulenga Kapwepwe
