Tune into Be More Now and catch host Blake More interviewing author Shugri Said Salh about her recently published memoir “The Last Nomad: Coming of Age in the Somali Desert”.

Honest and tender, The Last Nomad is a riveting coming-of-age story of resilience, survival, and the shifting definitions of home. Topics for discussion include Salh’s personal history of trauma, civil strife, asylum and ultimately triumph as she speaks of a youth divided between opposing worlds. Salh’s poetric prose radiates with deep empathy and sensitivity, a reflection of the gift for storytelling she inherited from her Grandmother.
