Moses Isegawa

Moses Isegawa was born in Uganda, in 1963. In 1990 he left Uganda for Holland to pursue his dream to become a writer. In 1998 he published the highly acclaimed Abyssinian Chronicles, a novel about Uganda.

I took these pictures at his book signing at the Galle Literary Festival. Every time he could not pronounce or spell a Sri Lankan name he would write it on his palm.

He was very funny and charismatic.
