His first post-apartheid novel... A complex cocktail of myths, legends, magic, farce, politics and morals... Powerful and enchanting.
A wonderful, extravagant book; a melting pot in which women's stories, black and white, young and old, marvelous fantasy and harsh political fact meet to create South Africa's answer to Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude.
