Dearest reader, 

 

Thank you for choosing to spend your time with Transient Anchors. 

 

I wrote this book to honor the lives, moments, places, and voices that shaped me.

I wrote this book to immortalize the stories of war, faith, family, friendship, and the pursuit of knowledge. 

I wrote this book to trace how one can carry the weight of loss, hope, curiosity, and identity across borders and generations.

Such stories, especially those marked by turbulence and resilience, are the glue that holds humankind together across history and geography. 

​

As your eyes savor the choreographically printed ink and the lore in the turning pages, I hope you find both the gravity of history and the beneficence of human connection as anchors in the turbulence of your own journey. 

 

Until then, may your days be anchored.

​​

Yours truly, ​

Libère​ J. Ndacayisaba
