Cape Argus  'This glorious book defies classification with its astute sociopolitical commentary nestling inside the appealing, often comic story of a young woman who will not accept defeat. With a light touch and real skill, Huchu takes us through the life-sapping economic realities of contemporary Harare - '  The Observer  'A brave novel for our times... funny, imaginative and succinct'  The Standard--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
