TITUS W MACHARIA

Titus W. Macharia is a Kenyan-American author whose work moves between epic fiction and lived memoir, bound by a single conviction: a people who remember who they are cannot be erased. He is the author of the Afrofuturist Azari Saga and the historical Iron Blood: The Unbroken Fire trilogy, which traces Kenya's long struggle for freedom — from the colonial theft of the land to the generation that finally rose as one. His Rooted series turns to nonfiction and memoir, exploring food, family, marriage, and the things one generation hopes to pass to the next. Across fiction and memoir alike, his work returns to the same questions: where we come from, what we carry, and how we find our way home.

Titus W. Macharia ni mwandishi mwenye asili ya Kikenya na Kimarekani, ambaye kazi yake huchanganya hadithi za kubuni na kumbukumbu za maisha halisi, zikiongozwa na imani moja: watu wanaokumbuka walivyo hawawezi kufutwa. Ameandika mfululizo wa Azari Saga pamoja na mfululizo wa kihistoria wa Iron Blood: The Unbroken Fire, unaosimulia mapambano marefu ya Kenya kuelekea uhuru — kutoka unyakuzi wa ardhi wakati wa ukoloni hadi kizazi kilichoinuka kama umoja. Mfululizo wake wa Rooted huelekea kwenye uandishi usio wa kubuni na kumbukumbu, ukichunguza chakula, familia, ndoa, na mambo ambayo kizazi kimoja hutamani kuyarithisha kizazi kingine.
