Abe Gubegna (1934-1980),[1] also spelled "Abbé" or "Abbie", (Amharic: አበ ጉበኛ) was an Ethiopian novelist and playwright
Life & work[edit]
He was born in Achefer, Yismala Giorgis and attended the local church schools where he became acquainted with liturgical poetry and music. actually he didn't attend a university/ but he attended his seconadry school in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, he became a journalist and, later, a civil servant. He eventually decided to devote all his time to writing, becoming Ethiopia's first full-time professional writer.[1] He was very outspoken on political issues and many of his books were banned. At one point, he was sentenced to three years of forced confinement to a small area surrounding his home.

During the "Red Terror - White Terror" days 1976 - 1979 he was one of the outspoken "Apostles" of change that nonetheless decried the blood shed others in the leftist movements believed were not only unavoidable but necessary. His vehemence against violence resulted in a newspaper article in which he suggested those thirsty for blood may be better served drinking their wive's menustral flow. Though this comment garnered him the ill-will of those who urged bloodshed and violence there is no indication that it led to anything more than his being sidelined for his immodesty.

His most famous novel is Aliwalidim (I Will Not Be Born, 1962), a satire about a baby who refuses to emerge from his mother's womb because of the unjust world waiting outside.

In his later years, he participated in the International Writing Fellowship Program at the University of Iowa.

He is credited with the following well-known quote (c.1974):

"Every day in Africa a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a lion wakes up. It knows that it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn’t matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you better be running."[citation needed]

Haddis Alemayehu (Amharic: ሀዲስ ዓለማየሁ; haddis alämayähu) (15 October 1910 – 6 December 2003), also transliterated Hadis Alamayahu, was a Foreign Minister and novelist from Ethiopia. His Amharic novel Fəqər əskä Mäqabər (Love to the Grave, 1968) is considered a classic of modern Ethiopian literature.

He was born in the Endor Kidane Miheret section of the city of Debre Marqos, the son of an Orthodox priest, Abba Alemayehu Solomon and his mother Desta alemu. He grew up with his mother. As a boy, he began his education within the system of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, studying at the monasteries of Debre Elias, Debre Werq, and Dima Giorgis where he finally graduated in Qine (type of extended Ethiopian orthodox church education). Later, he moved to Addis Ababa where he attended several schools, including the Swedish mission school (1925–27) and later at the Tafari Makonnen School for further education of the secular sort (EthioView December 12, 2003). He wrote his first play during this period, YeHabeshan yewedehuala Gabcha (The marriage of habesha and its backwardness) which displayed remarkably mature style. In the early 1930s Hadis returned to Gojam and worked as a customs clerk and school headmaster before moving to a teaching position at Debre Markos. Haddis Alemayehu fought during the Italian-Ethiopian war for colonialism (1935–36) until he was captured and sent to the Island of Ponzo in the western Mediterranean and then to the island of Lipari, near Sardinia.

Freed by allied forces Haddis finally returned to Ethiopia (1943). After brief stints in the department of Press and Propaganda and Ministry of Forein Affaires,he became the Ethiopian consul in Jerusalem(1945–46), where he stayed for about two years.There he met and married Kibebe-tsaehay Belay,who had lived and had been brought up in Jerusalem. Haddis then served as a delegate to the international communications conference in Atlantic City, New Jersey (1946). Afterwards, he received a posting to the Ethiopian mission in Washington, D.C. and at the United Nations (1946–50). His next assignment was in the Ethiopian Foreign Ministry, first as General Director and then as Vice Minister. During the 1956–1960s he worked as Ethiopian representative to UN.After his return Haddis briefly worked at the Ministry of Education (1960) followed by appointment as Ambassador to Britain and Netherlands (1960–65).

After his recall to Ethiopia, Haddis, who was not in good health, preferred not to enter into government service. Reluctantly, he agreed to become a minister of Planning and Development (1965–66) and also served in the Ethiopian Senate (1968–74). During the era of the first two years of Derg regime (a newly brought military government taking the advantage of mass revolution), Haddis served as a member of the advisory body that had been created to replace the dissolved parliament. However he declined the Derg's offer to become Prime Minister, thus removing himself from any meaningful governmental roles. In the meantime he returned to his literature career when he published Fikr Eske Mekabr, his famous novel about love in a feudal Ethiopia. Not only this, he had written Wongelegnaw Dagna (the criminal judge) and yelemezat (sweet only in dreams) and others. He was eventually awarded an honorary doctorate by Addis Ababa University.
