Description
A story of the death of two young couples, the first in a road accident in which two lovers perish, the second being the death of love itself between Edna, air hostess, and Dave, play-boy.
Set in Nairobi, this is a first-moving story which stresses the seamy side of city life in sex, crime, corruption, misfortune, and their resultant effects on an assortment of living characters who are seen in Nairobi daily, or more significantly, nightly.
It’s the city style as seen and lived by Nairobi’s rising and trendy young men and wome. There is vice and crime, violence and opulence, prostitution and hypocrisy. And in her face and love for life, sensational Edna haunted by death, clings onto her carefree casanova boyfriend, Dave… It is Dave’s turn, however, to learn that a girl cannot go on laughing all the time. The novel is as contemporary as it is courageous,as hilarious as it is harsh.
A girl cannot go on laughing all the time is full of pathos, yet it is the one novel you may laugh to read.
