Reviews
At one and the same time sensitive and incisive, Vincent's account succeeds in demonstrating how different the literature of eSwatini is from other African literatures, and makes a strong case for its in-depth scholarly consideration. Ranging through gasp-inducing colonialist and settler writing and ethnographic fiction to contemporary poetry, fiction and drama, his book is thoroughly researched, tackling the relevant scholarly theoretical texts, and yet is always eloquent and consistently provokes ones curiosity. It is encyclopedic in scope and also benefits from Vincent's intimate knowledge of the country. An eye-opening account of a controversy-bound country and of the literature it has produced. -- Chris Dunton, National University of Lesotho
