Oh you're brave hiding behind that pseudonym! First, a TPLF cadre is someone who is a die-hard TPLF member - which by all means is not me. Secondly, the retard is the one who cannot make proper sentences.
I'd pay to get you through school!
Don't mess with people you don't know.

Comment from: Habtamu [Visitor] Well done Lara Kassa. We should all appreciate a positive and optimistic view, especially coming from a foreigner. Aren't you fedup yet with all the negative stuff that has been said about us? Congratulations, I've read the book and it's super!

Comment from: Mulu [Visitor] I'm an Ethiopian living in London too, its was fantastic to read a good book about Ethiopia!
An enjoyable hunting fiction that involves friendship, love, moral values, history and Ethiopia!
Especially when the author describes the various landscapes... I wish I was there!!!
Looking forward to another great story!!!
Well done Lara! Mulu

Comment from: Ali Roble [Visitor] As a someone who born and grew up the said panoramic train route, in Deridewa city to be exact, I have nothing to say about Signorina Kassa's work exept praise. But I have serious doubts as far as the kindness of some ethnic ethiopians ( habeshas.) and the cause of the brain drain concerned .It a is lopsided notion and especially when it come power and support of the downtrodden masses: while they may display deceptive and oppurtunistic genority, they infliction more harm to each other. I left my belove birth place 20 years ago in favor of North America and mainly for political marginalization, lack of opportunity, state sponsored chauovenis and and so on against my ethio-somali ethnic identity. Many habash know what I'm talking about. So would I advice miss Lara to dig deep before she makes hasty,superfial judgements.
Cioa bella signorina!

Comment from: lara kassa [Visitor] Thanks everybody for your comments. I appreciated them all. Thanks to Kumsa who sparkled the discussion. I also would like to clarify that 'The train to Djibouti' is purely a 'fiction' book (nothing political is mentionned whatsoever), a story-painting having as a frame and background the culture, landscapes and life of Ethiopia, nothing more. My optimism (as Kumsa like to call it) is exclusively due to the fact that I tried to highlight in my book a few positive aspects about a Country too often painted in a negative light and even denigrated by many and for which I feel very strongly. I leave the pessimism to those who have a taste for it.
If you have any question about my book or any comment after you have read it, you can contact me at larakassa@yahoo.co.uk
