Maverick and out-of-the-ordinary short stories, set in New York, Cape Town, and the sky
Dynamic and unpredictable, this collection weaves together poignant tales rooted in contemporary South Africa. The short stories explore the poverty and violence of the modern nation, but also the unexpected joys of human interaction, examining everything from violence and the life of beggars to desire and dreams of Nelson Mandela.
Jane Bennett is the director of the African Gender Institute in Cape Town, South Africa.
