Moolla, F. Fiona. Reading Nuruddin Farah: The Individual, the Novel & the Idea of Home. Boydell & Brewer Ltd, 2014.

Moolla examines his writing within the framework of Somali society and culture, Islamic traditions and political contexts, all of which are central themes in his work. She also addresses Farah's engagement with women's lives - his female characters and identities being at the heart of, rather than peripheral, to his stories - something that has distinguished him from many other male African writers. The book finally suggests that through his literary negotiation of the central contradiction of modern identity, Farah comes close to constituting a subject who no longer is transcendentally 'homeless' but finds a home 'everywhere' - a fitting project for a writer who has been in exile for the greater part of his life.
