A last swim in a condemned pool leads a troubled teenager and her
grandmother to common ground... A young woman finds it so hard to
make her way in the city that she takes a drastic decision... A
couple receive relationship counselling from a strange family
grouping... A boy meets two exiles from Rwanda - one of them a
gorilla - with remarkable results... A woman summons her father
back from the dead... The authors shortlisted for the 2014 Caine
Prize are: Diane Awerbuck (South Africa) for Phosphorescence;
Efemia Chela (Ghana/Zambia) for Chicken; Tendai Huchu (Zimbabwe)
for The Intervention; Billy Kahora (Kenya) for The Gorilla's

volume. These 17 stories - insightful, arresting and entertaining -
reflect the richness and range of current writing on the African
continent.
