Bøger af Kevin O'Connor

Don't Say Charm is a bildungsroman set in the city of Baltimore in the early 2000s. It chronicles the adventures of Caffer, a student at Johns Hopkins University, and his girlfriend Emily, as they navigate a web of parties, friends, and relationships, eventually leading to Caffer's self-imposed exile in Mexico during a period of political tumult, and a tragic ending that pulls him back to his home state of New York. The time capsule-like narrative weaves in various depictions and descriptions of early millennial life in the United States.

This selection of newspaper articles by columnist Kevin O'Connor for the Sunday Monitor, are drawn almost entirely from 2007 to 2015. Divided into thirteen chapters ranging from sex to religion and from inequality to the environment, the 193 articles are always thoughtful, often provocative and sometimes humorous. The text is further enlivened by Moses Balagadde's cartoons. Kevin provides a multitude of insights into Ugandan society, which amply reflect both the title of his column, Roving Eye, and his catchphrase, "For the observer of human behaviour every scene has its interest."
