Now entering its sixteenth year, the Caine Prize for African Writing is Africa's leading literary prize, and is awarded to a short story by an African writer published in English, whether in Africa or elsewhere.

This is a great collection of African themed stories by African writers. They showcase the variety and different colour of life on the continent and the diversity of the human experience in it.
They range from the shocking and heartbreaking to the lighthearted (one of them at least is really funny). All of them have depth beyond their few pages, and some will remain with you for a long time.
Africa is the legitimate source of all human stories, and no wonder there are so many good ones between these two covers. ( )
