Summary:"In his first collection of short stories, acclaimed author Niq Mhlongo confronts the span of ... [South Africa's] democracy and the madness of the last twenty years after apartheid. He takes an unflinching look at urban and rural South Africa, which he explores through themes such as racism, xenophobia, homophobia, crime, land distribution and economic inequality.
