The bed, dressed in hand sewn quilt or threadbare blanket, may in and of itself be memorable, but it is what happens in the bed the sex and lovemaking, the dreams, the reading, the nightmares, the rest, giving birth and dying which give bed special meaning. Whether a bed is shared with a book, a child, a pet or a partner, whether lovers lie in ecstasy or indifference, whether bed relates to intimacy or betrayal, it is memories and recollections of bed, in whatever form, which have triggered the writing of these thirty stories by women from southern Africa. Well known writers Joanne Fedler, Sarah Lotz, Arja Salafranca, Rosemund Handler and Liesl Jobson will delight, but you will discover here new writers from Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Malawi, Namibia and Zambia, each with a unique voice as they cast light on the intimate lives of women living in this part of the world and the possibilities that are both available to and denied them. The BED BOOK of short stories some quirky and tender, others traumatic or macabre is the perfect companion to take to bed with you, to keep you reading long into the night.

The bed, dressed in hand sewn quilt or threadbare blanket, may in and of itself be memorable, but it is what happens in the bed - the sex and lovemaking, the dreams, the reading, the nightmares, the rest, giving birth and dying - which give 'bed' special meaning. Whether a bed is shared with a book, a child, a pet or a partner, whether lovers lie in ecstasy or indifference, whether 'bed' relates to intimacy or betrayal, it is memories and recollections of 'bed', in whatever form, which have triggered the writing of these thirty stories by women from southern Africa.

The audacious, savagely funny debut of a writer of razor-sharp wit and surprising tenderness: a collection of stories that gives us a fresh take on adolescence, death, sex; on being Jewish-ish; and on finding one’s way as a young woman in the world. A New Yorker, trying not to be jaded, accompanies a cash-strapped pot grower to a “clothing optional resort” in California. A nerdy high-schooler has her first sexual experience at Geology Camp. A college student, on the night of her father’s funeral, watches a video of her bat mitzvah, hypnotized by the image of the girl she used to be . . . Frank and irreverent, Rebecca Schiff’s stories offer a singular view of growing up (or not) and finding love (or not) in today’s ever-uncertain landscape. In its bone-dry humor, its pithy observations, and its thrilling ability to unmask the most revealing moments of human interaction—no matter how fleeting—The Bed Moved announces a new talent to be reckoned with.

An absurdist short story collection about the woes of 21st-century living—from an author whose writing is “moving and necessary, not to mention frequently hilarious” (Miranda July) College students, recent graduates, and their parents work at Denny’s, volunteer at a public library in suburban Florida, attend satanic ska/punk concerts, eat Chinese food with the homeless of New York City, and go to the same Japanese restaurant in Manhattan three times in two sleepless days, all while yearning constantly for love, a better kind of love, or something better than love, things which—much like the Loch Ness Monster—they know probably do not exist, but are rumored to exist and therefore “good enough.”

This is a coloured version of the book. This book is a collection of 30 pieces of flash fiction that explore the very human emotions of characters who may not necesaarily be humans. Most of them begin where stories generally end. They take you down that stream of emotions where you think you'll dip only your toes but end up drowning. They present life with a skewed perspective that incite pain in humour and humour in pain. All stories carry the wide angle view that comes from living between worlds. As one of the characters had rightly said, "You'll find out, in time..." Backing up the story line are the illustrations that create an aura of mystery and intrigue. Here is a sneak peak into one of the stories from the book. Lucky He hurried up the building stairs taking two steps at a time, excited and nervous at the same time, like a teenager. Opening the door with his gnarled hands, he announced in a breathless voice, "Honey! I'm home." Opening the packets, he placed the vegetables, bread and eggs in separate bowls on the kitchen counter, just as she liked it. This way, she wouldn't have to strain herself by moving them around too much or too far. Then, he set the table complete with the flowers and candles he had bought on the way home for a romantic dinner and stepped in the bath for a quick shower. He could hear the chink and clatter in the kitchen, and the yearning to be with her tugged at his heart. He quickly dressed up in his best clothes, checked his reflection and rushed into the dining room. The food was already on the table. He pulled out the chair for his wife of the past 41 years, just like the early days of their marriage. They talked about their day, which was pretty much mundane, but still, somehow, made him realize how much he had missed her all day. As he munched the food, once again, he thought of the days when she was gone. The house was a mess and so was he. How many days had he gone without washing his face or changing clothes? How lucky was he to get a second chance! Savouring every bite, he thanked the stars for the kids who called her back through the Ouija board...
