R. Mugo Gatheru (born 21 August 1925) is a Kenyan writer. His autobiographical ''A Child of Two Worlds'' describes growing up in colonial Kenya.〔Simon Gikandi, 'Gatheru, Mugo', in Gikandi, ed., ''Encyclopedia of African Literature''. Routledge; 2002. ISBN 978-0-415-23019-3. Reprinted online (here )〕 Gatheru was born to a squatter family living on a European farm. He attended medical school in Nairobi, but was forced to continue his education abroad after he protested the treatment of Africans by the colonial rulers. After a year in India, he spent eight years from 1950 in the United States before studying law in England. He returned to Kenya when it gained independence in 1963.〔Fetter, B., ''Colonial Rule in Africa'', 1979, p.191〕 ==Works== * ''A Child of Two Worlds: a Kikuyu's story'', 1925 * ''Kenya : from colonization to independence, 1888-1970'', 2005 * ''From beneath the tree of life : a story of the Kenyan people of Ngai'', 2005 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mugo Gatheru」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
