Dear Readers, This work, Sebeez, stands apart from my previous writings in both its content and structure. While my earlier books—already made available to the public—focused on specific themes with a clear beginning and end, Sebeez is different. It is a collection of real-life experiences gathered across different times and places throughout my life. "Addis Books!

Someone Like Us by Dinaw Mengestu
Someone Like Us book by Dinaw Mengestu
A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK • The son of Ethiopian immigrants seeks to understand a hidden family history and uncovers a past colored by unexpected loss, addiction, and the enduring emotional pull toward home.
After abandoning his once-promising career as a journalist in search of a new life in Paris, Mamush meets Hannah—a photographer whose way of seeing the world shows him the possibility of finding not only love but family. Now, five years later, with his marriage to Hannah on the verge of collapse, he returns to the close-knit immigrant Ethiopian community of Washington, DC, that defined his childhood. At its center is Mamush’s stoic, implacable mother, and Samuel, the larger-than-life father figure whose ceaseless charm and humor have always served as a cover for a harder, more troubling truth. But on the same day that Mamush arrives home in Washington, Samuel is found dead in his garage.
