Reviews
'The stories are wry and wary, and the common thread is conflict as cultures or generations, desires or ideologies, clash irreconcilably; and apartheid's ghost still haunts the new South Africa ... perfect, lyrical prose' Sunday Telegraph 'Sparse, sharply honed and often ending with an ironic twist' Independent Magazine 'Rapid, unimpeded storytelling ... brilliant ... wonderful ... her humour is wise and completely desiccated' Guardian 'Nadine Gordimer is one of the best storywriters in English today' Observer
