[E-book Edition] Available worldwide from October 19, 2025!

This is the incredible story of Eriko Mukoyama, fondly known as Anyango Nyar Siaya, a Japanese woman who travelled thousands of kilometers from Tokyo to Siaya, Kenya, to master the art of playing the nyatiti (traditional lyre of the Luo people)
It is a compelling tale of a musician who dared to play an instrument long considered the exclusive preserve of Luo men. How she convinced the maestro Okumu K’Orengo to accept her in his home deep in rural Kenya as his own daughter and become her mentor. Anyango, as she became known, was not just a musical adventurer; she was a cultural devotee who immersed herself deeply in the identity of the Luo people; their history, customs, language and food, it is a story of resilience, determination, and the courage to break cultural barriers.
