Moral and creative courage marks these new stories from young writers of the SADC region: They say what they want and confront what they must, unconstrained by past notions of what can or should be voiced.

Winning stories selected by JM Coetzee.

“The best of these young writers are on a par with their coevals in the West … the material they work with is of burning social, political and human importance.
…
From the thirty–one stories I read I made a short list of six finalists. The standard of these finalists is very high indeed; any one of them would have been a worthy prize–winner.”
Nobel Laureate JM Coetzee
