Running and Other Stories

Meer over het boek

Engaging with tradition in a revolutionary manner, Makhosazana Xaba re-imagines literary, cultural, and gender norms in her collection of ten stories. Each narrative, while independent, converses with the others, creating a cohesive experience that can be enjoyed in one sitting or savored individually. Inspired by Can Themba's influential short story, The Suit, Xaba's work offers a liberating perspective that revitalizes women's voices, transforming the ordinary into a space of innovation and empowerment.
