This book contains 23 thrilling and intriguing African short stories delivered with the kind of humor and suspense that is guaranteed to captivate you. The stories include: An Era before Modern Medication - In an era where the remedy for any ailment - from headache to sore throat to a rash - could only be administered by the use of a hypodermic needle, "toa suruari" (remove your underwear) were the words most dreaded by many children. What If? - Living in the grip of poverty, Pendo had never known anyone whose radio used more than two batteries. But Mzungu, her secret lover has a big radio cassette that requires eight batteries to operate. Yes, eight! And he loves her - or so he claims. The Bitter Man - Loss of his job, the threat of eviction and tempting aromas from the neighbors' houses are only some of John's problems. And the landlord's black hen will simply not stay out of the hungry man's way... The Road to K'ogelo - When Barrack Obama wins the presidential elections, jubilation grips the air and his new found relatives from his father's roots prepare a big feast in K'ogelo. Word has it that Mr. Obama might be present at the celebrations and no one wants to be left behind. Navigating River Road - One man is determined to do whatever it takes to improve his relationship with his ruthless mother-in-law. His encounter with a karata man (gambler) presents an opportunity to win the old woman's favor once and for all.

Bequeathing an enduring tenet for the creative enterprise, African Short Stories vol 2 boldly seeks to upturn the status quo by the art of narration. Whether they are stories of the whistle blower estranged and yet sounding the warning for heaven and earth to hear, or a ragtag army fleeing in the wake of a monstrous reptilian onslaught upon her peace, there pervades a sense of ultimate victory in this collection. We can feel the gentle kick of a baby in the womb of a maiden in desperation, or we can muse at the two adolescent genii on the trail of their dreams from the sunset of mutual deceit into the daylight of true becoming. Victory is laid out in that awesome kindness of a total stranger which affirms the divinity latent in even our most harrowing existence. With thirty five stories in two parts these literary experiments compel attention to the courageous hearts and minds that brighten the African universe of narration. Their vibrant notes coming from all corners of north, west, east and south fill us with encouragement and optimism for the contemporary short fiction in Africa.

Presenting a diverse and dazzling collection from all over the continent, from Morocco to Zimbabwe, Uganda to Kenya. Helon Habila focuses on younger, newer writers - contrasted with some of their older, more established peers - to give a fascinating picture of a new and more liberated Africa. These writers are characterized by their engagement with the wider world and the opportunities offered by the end of apartheid, the end of civil wars and dictatorships, and the possibilities of free movement. Their work is inspired by travel and exile. They are liberated, global and expansive. As Dambudzo Marechera wrote: 'If you're a writer for a specific nation or specific race, then f*** you." These are the stories of a new Africa, punchy, self-confident and defiant. Includes stories by: Fatou Diome; Aminatta Forna; Manuel Rui; Patrice Nganang; Leila Aboulela; Zo Wicomb; Alaa Al Aswany; Doreen Baingana; E.C. Osondu.
