Teklai Zeweldi

Teklai Zeweldi was one of the three authors through whom the novel appeared in Tigrinya, at the turn of the fifties, with Ghebreyesus Hailu and Zegga-Iyesus Iyasu. Like them, according to Xavier Luffin, he had first tried his hand at journalism and the essay. His novel appeared in 1954, during the federation of Eritrea with Ethiopia, when Tigrinya was one of the country's two official languages, with Arabic. No dates and no other book are known for him.
