On 21 October 2025, the Avid Readers Forum convened a thought-provoking session on Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o’s short story “A Meeting in the Dark.” The discussion was led by Narah Yegon, a second-year law student at Kabarak University School of Law, and attended by other law students and a faculty member. The session involved a collective reading of the story, with participants taking turns to read various parts aloud before engaging in an analytical discussion.
Ah! The title. “A Meeting in the Dark”, sounds like a setup for secret rendezvous, a lover’s whispers, or maybe a horror movie, though, it’s far more than some romantic cliché. The “darkness” is not just a missing bulb. It is moral, spiritual, and psychological. When John meets Wamuhu in the dark, the meeting is not only a secret but symbolic. A confrontation between tradition and colonial religion, between guilt and desire, and between two very different visions of heaven.
On 14 October 2025, the Avid Readers Forum convened for a reflective reading and discussion of Idza Luhumyo’s short story Five Years Next Sunday.

Participants engaged in a collective reading, moving through the narrative in turns before interrogating its themes, symbolism, and moral questions. The session sought to unpack how fiction mirrors social realities in which human dignity is continually negotiated against material need.

The session featured a collective reading of the letter, with participants reading paragraph per paragraph of Bana’s words in turns before diving into analysis.
