Welcome to the Ajijic Book Club
The focus of the Ajijic Book Club is exclusively on nonfiction books. Members may review and discuss books
on all subjects and for any time period. The Ajijic Book Club also provides members with opportunities for
socializing.
In a world of growing polarization and conflict, the members of the Ajijic Book Club, in a spirit of
celebrating the oneness of humanity, seek to engage in civil dialogue with each other especially when
confronted by deeply held opposing views.

Shugri Said Salh was born in the Somali desert. In 1992, she immigrated to North America after civil war broke out in her home country. She attended nursing school at Pacific Union College and graduated with honors. Although this is her first book, Salh has been storytelling since she could talk. From her grandmother and the nomadic community in which she was raised, she heard stories and learned of their power to entertain, teach, and transform. When she isn't writing or telling stories, she works as an infusion nurse. She lives in Sonoma County with her husband and three children.
