Mohammed Naseehu Ali at Josie’s Cuppa Cappuccino

On Friday 8th May 2009, The management and staff of 'Cappuccino at Dusk' are honoured to host the writer and musician Mohammed Naseehu Ali. He is considered as one of Ghana’s most promising writers. The Prophet of Zongo Street which was published by HarperCollins in 2005 has received much critical acclaim.

‘In a tradition of rich African storytelling that mixes myth with modernity. The Prophet of Zongo Street is a dazzling collection of stories that calls to mind Ben Okri and Chinua Achebe. Mohammed Naseehu Ali, the tradition’s acclaimed new practitioner offers up ten powerful and beautifully rendered tales. Set primarily on the fictitious Zongo Street – a close knit community of wonderfully quirky characters who hold tight to superstition, religion and family - these stories are anchored by the uproarious, the embarrassing, the poignant and the rawest moments of life.’
