reviewed African rhapsody on October 09, 2014 African rhapsody
A great anthology of 25 diverse short stories from sixteen African countries showing different cultures, traditions and lifestyles.
I was particularly interested by Her three days, about polygamy and the psychological struggles of a wife waiting for her turn with her shared husband.
I like how those stories were reassembled. In the preface, the editor explains that "the stories could have been arranged in several ways: alphabetically by author for example, or by geographical region". But he chose to present them by the plot, starting with stories involving children, and ending with stories of war, destruction and death.
This was the second collection of African short stories I've read, and I will keep looking for more...
