A collection of stories about the lives of ordinary families in contemporary Botswana as they navigate relationships, tradition and caretaking in a rapidly changing world.
So exceptionally written that sentences can shine and awe ... Moeng is at her absolute best when she writes into the interior, often deliciously illicit, lives of her women characters.
Moeng paints beautiful vignettes of modern Botswana, exposing readers to communities and traditions of her home country while exploring dichotomies and relational tensions familiar to all readers. Her beautiful, lyrical prose and memorable characters make this collection a delight to read.
