Description
The Missing Pages is a collection of new and previously published stories by Siphiwo Mahala, one of contemporary South Africa’s most distinguished literary voices. Covering a broad spectrum of themes, styles, and epochs, the stories take readers on a journey from the colonial invasions of the 1800s through the oppressive, early apartheid-era 1950s, the turbulent struggles of the 1980s, and into the intricacies of modern-day South Africa.
This vibrant collection offers a rich, vivid portrayal of a dynamic, constantly evolving and culturally diverse society. Set against the backdrop of the country’s history, Mahala masterfully weaves wit, humour and profound insights, making The Missing Pages both a mirror of the past and a lens through which to view the current social fabric of South Africa.
