Would appreciate any leads as to the author of the book, title in full and whether it's still in print.

The title is in kikuyu "Matigari ma __________" (the remains of _________")... can't remember the rest.

The cover was black and a shade of yellow - African print. The title is in bold white(?)

...there is a "scene" where some guys have just been thrown in prison for vagrancy.

Would appreciate if you could be so kind and google the words Matigari ma.

You do know how to "Google", don't you?

Matigari ma Njiruungi - Ngugi wa Thiong’o. Ahhh... Ngugi, my man, I wish I could read Ukuyu!!! But I have devoured all his other works written in English.
...Buy it from test any text book center outlet. If you cant find it, go to East African Educaional Publisers
