Bloodsong and Other Stories of South Africa

Description

An extraordinary voice tells these 11 stories, making use of familiar words in unfamiliar order and adding details so pungent that time and place are pinned in a sentence. In "A Farm at Raraba" a white South African soldier captures "one of those yellow Hottentot types, with spaces between his peppercorns of hair," and they shelter together for the night.
