Benji’s Big Win

by Ndũcũ wa Ngũgĩ

Benji, a teenager, attends Kamden Secondary
School. He is the captain of the school football team. He loves football
and would like nothing more than to have his father come and watch him
play. His father’s disinterest hurts his feelings and he contemplates
quitting altogether. Even as this is going on, Benji has other problems.
A simple act of kindness morphs into a deep-seated rivalry between him
and Karis. It is the cocktail of this rivalry, love for football,
concern over environmental degradation, adolescent infatuation and
determination to win parental love and approval that makes life in Loki
adventurous and exciting.

Benji’s Big Win is a story that will certainly keep the reader on the edge of the seat and offer invaluable lessons to the youth.
