New Zimbabwean novel just out
Hot from the press, this short but gripping novel Running with Mother by Chris Mlalazi. Told through the eyes of fourteen-year-old Rudo, whose mother is Shona and father is Ndebele, it chronicles her flight from home with her mother and aunt, as her village is subjected to the forces of darkness. While we are conscious of the horror that follows, we are also touched by the humour, resilience and courage of the characters who are devoid of self-pity.
A must read for all Zimbabweans, it is not a book one can quickly forget.
Price: US$14 (inc. VAT)
