What A World

By Reverend Father Christopher Geh Kum

Book Overview

Reverend Father Christopher Geh Kum's autobiographical novel, What A World, is an engaging and instructive narrative of courage, determination, perseverance and, most importantly, hope in God. The author succeeds in establishing an authentic and extraordinary chronology of the significant events that marked his life through a faithful reconstruction of his journey depicted through recognisable characters who share mutually challenging but spiritually transformative experiences. Through a multitude of stages, from a warm but financially handicapped family setting, through petty trading, abusive and exploitative salesmanship, foster-home babysitting, spiritually uplifting and consoling Legionary activities, to door-opening educational and vocationally oriented studies, Christopher Geh Kum enunciates the warmth of African family, the rewards of effort and perseverance, the corrosiveness of unbridled capitalism, the futility of lust, non-discriminate African hospitality, and unfailing Divine providence. From his life-guide prism, he teaches that one can overcome turbulence and uncertainties through serenity in the face of adversity, perseverance, and Divine reliance. He came into the world, went through acerbic experiences, turned to and relied on Divine guidance, and overcame. Why shouldn't you?
