Leaves Bookshop, South Sudan hosts its first book signing event Dear friends and colleagues, Leaves Bookshop will be hosting its first book signing event this Saturday 27th October. You are cordially invited to join us any time between 12:30pm and 5:30pm to meet author Philip Winter and get your copy of A Sacred Cause. A Sacred Cause may interest those of you who have been watching South Sudan's exhausting travels between war and peace and the negotiation processes which have helped to bring the nation to where it is today. In March 2000, Philip Winter was approached to act as Chef de Cabinet to the ex-President of Botswana, Sir Ketumile Masire, who had been selected to chair and facilitate the talks between the three main warring parties in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The long and complicated discussions which followed turned into a negotiating marathon lasting over three years and culminating in a signed agreement in April 2003. The author was the Manager of Juba Boatyard in South Sudan before the war and also worked here during the war under Operation Lifeline Sudan. He is now Juba Representative of the diplomatic advisory group, Independent Diplomat. Leaves also invites you to browse Juba's widest collection of affordable used and new books and enjoy your Saturday afternoon together with friends of Leaves. If you come early enough you'll also get to enjoy a few snacks and treats provided by Leaves. :) Please extend this invitation to family and friends. Children are also welcome to visit Baobab Corner where we have a great range of subsidised books for children and young adults. If you love books we guarantee you won't be disappointed at Leaves Bookshop, Juba, South Sudan. Leaves is based at The ROOTS Project, Nimra Talata. Please see the attached map for directions. We look forward to seeing you there!
