Born

Kenya

Charity Waciuma (1936) is a Kenyan writer, who wrote several novels for adolescents and an autobiographical novel, Daughter of Mumbi (1969).

Charity Waciumbi grew up in pre-Independence Kenya, during the violent anti-colonial struggle between the Mau-Mau and British rulers. Daughter of Mumbi tells of the tensions felt by an adolescent who is torn between her allegiance to traditional identities (Mumbi was the mythical female founder of the Kikuyu) and a father (to whom the book is dedicated) who sees his support for British colonial rule as an allegiance to modernity.
