A presentation of a collection of poems, coupled with artistic photographs, produced by a brilliant Zanzibar-born artist, photographer, author and theatrical producer, Issak Esmail Issak. What started as individual Friday greetings to close friends and family, later became a treasure trove that had to be shared widely—hence this selected collection. Each photograph is a subtle, yet very eloquent, portrayal of the intricate cosmopolitan life in Zanzibar. Although each individual photograph already speaks volumes, the poem, alongside each, serves as a colorful embellishment. It is hoped that the reader will take the time to scrutinize each entry to try to read, understand and savor the creative genius of the author; for there is little doubt that this man of many talents is an indefatigable creator of not only admirable photographs and author of beautiful poetry, but also a brilliant producer of theatrical plays. Worth mentioning here are two other projects on which he is currently working. One is a book detailing the histories of Kutch and Zanzibar, and the Kumbhaar (or the potter-community) immigration to rural Zanzibar; and the other is the production of plays for the ‘FaAna’ Theatre. Not only does he produce the plays, he selects and trains the young Zanzibari actors, and even directs the film productions himself.

I could almost hear each paddle stroke and each deep footprint as his boots crunched through the forest floor to his special location. Chris has a very special relationship with his grandfather. He can ask him anything, and is eager to learn all that Fred has to offer. One special year Chris learns about the true meaning of God's love while helping work in the garden. Throughout this special year, Chris pieces together clues left to him by his grandfather as to the location of a secret key, which reveals the ten lessons for living. Based on a true story, My Grandfathers Garden, takes us inside a young boy's mind and opens us up to loving lessons that transcend time. Tied together with select poems from Robert Frost, this beautiful story encourages us to discover our past and unlock the secrets of our soul.
