The German philosopher and mathematican Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz, maintained that this world god created was the best of all possible worlds. God could not have created a world that would contain a contradiction. In Descartes`opossed view, it was possible for God to create a world containing contradictions. The two philosophers`s dispute concerned the issue of what is it that is necessary, as opossed to that which is arbitrary, in a created world. Against this background, I would like to discuss William E. Mkufya`s novel, Ziraili na Zirani.
