Jambula Tree and Other Stories A Selection of Works from the Caine Prize for African Writing

Presenting an absorbing array of South African tales, this remarkable collection is headed by Jambula Tree, winner of the 8th Annual Caine Prize-Africa's most prestigious literary accolade for a short story published in English. Complemented by the short-listed entries carefully selected by the Caine Prize judges, this collaboration of unique talent promotes voices as spiritual and distinct as the South African landscape itself. With a rich and honest narrative, these refreshingly contemporary stories hum with the multiplicity of a pan-African reality, providing raw and deeply affecting perspectives into a unique and ancient culture.
