College life on a continuum, written in 1998, is an autobiography of 137 pages published by Kabel Publishers in the USA. It is the first autobiographical work published by a Gambian. The author tells us about the years he spent, between August 1992 and May 1996, in the Missouri State College where he was studying economics. It recounts his first days in college, lectures, responsibilities, the petty jobs to make some money, the romantic adventures, sports and other serious problems encountered on campus (sex, drugs, racism, delinquency…) The book ends with the exams and the Graduation Ceremony. A very good documentary of campus life in USA, seen through Gambian eyes.
