This novel collection by first-time author Perfect Hlongwane offers
a biting portrait of inner-city Jo’burg, `a place where dreams
come to die’. Written as a series of interlinked stories centring
around an eclectic ensemble of characters, it conjures for readers
a city both familiar and surprising. With its vein of painful
self-examination, evocative sense of place and unflinching
exploration of the rawer aspects of Jo’burg living, it brings to
mind the impact of cult literary figures like Dambudzo Marechera
and Phaswane Mpe.
