Dancing with Life is a collection of short stories by Christopher
Mlalazi. He has had stories published in anthologies inside and
outside Zimbabwe, this is his first collection. "Christopher
Mlalazi may well be the most promising young writer in Zimbabwe
today. His fiction captures the edgy energy of townships where
young people have learned to be light on their feet, their dancing
born of economic necessity and mocking disrespect for traditional
authority. Mlalazi depicts contemporary life in Zimbabwe with an
uncompromising determination to explore grievous social wounds and
with a creative panache that will win him readers within and beyond
his home country." - Patricia Alden, Professor of African
Literature, St Lawrence University "Christopher Mlalazi is the
rising voice of the ghetto, with all its violence, sharp anger,
bitter protestations and tangible promise of a better tomorrow." -
Raisedon Baya, Writer and Columist "This collection sparkles with
wit, sizzles with style and dances with life. It is a welcome
addition to Zimbabwe's growing canon and will be read and enjoyed
for years to come." - Petina Gappah, Writer and Critic
