Die Laughing is the fourth of the Short.Sharp.Stories Awards annual
anthologies, produced in conjunction with the National Arts
Festival. Following 2013’s successful Bloody Satisfied, 2014’s
Adults Only which won the coveted NIHSS Award (National Institute
of Humanities and Social Sciences), and 2015’s Incredible Journey
from which two stories were nominated for the Caine Prize, we bring
you Die Laughing, an anthology of stories of wit, satire and
humour. Here, writers have poked a little fun at our crazy country,
at our politics, our idiosyncrasies, our down-right ridiculous
habits. A number of stories look on the lighter, brighter side of
life, and, of course, dark humour is included too - irony, satire
and tragi-comedy, all with a strong sense of the South African
setting. The aim of the Short.Sharp.Stories awards is to showcase
South African fiction-writing talent. The prize money offered,
totalling R35,000, is sponsored by the National Arts Festival and
ensures entries of an excellent standard. With a foreword by Evita
Bezuidenhout, introduction by Darrel Bristow-Bovey, and stories by
prize-winning authors as well as new voices, DIE LAUGHING promises
to be another stand-out anthology.
