Jambula Tree and Other Stories: The Caine Prize for African Writing 8th Annual Collection by Monica Arac de Nyeko

4.0

As you'd expect with a collection like this, the quality differed across stories. That said, I absolutely loved some of these and appreciated the variety of perspectives, stories, and styles. The 2 Caine Prize winning stories (Jambula Tree from 2007 and Poison from 2008) were both excellent and will stick with me.
