Unsentimental and unselfpitying, this short but powerful novel by
Chris Mlalazi vivifies an account by Rudo, a fourteen-year-old
school girl who observes the terrifying events that take place in
her village. Running with Mother provides us with a gripping story
of how Rudo, her mother, her aunt and her little cousin survive the
onslaught. Shocking as the story that unfolds may be, it is
balanced by the resilience, self-respect, unselfishness and
stoicism of the protagonists. Mlalazi's novel is written with
insight, humour and provides a salutory reminder that even in the
worst of times, we can find humanity.
