SUN BETWEEN THEIR FEET: Collected African Stories 2

This much-acclaimed collection of stories vividly evokes the grandeur of Africa, the glare of its sun and the wide open space, as well as the great, irresolvable tensions between whites and blacks. Tales of poor white farmers and their lonely wives, of storm air thick with locusts, of ants and pomegranate trees, black servants and the year of hunger in a native village all combine to present a poweful image of a continent which seems incorruptible in spite of all the people who plough, mine and plunder it to make their living.
