If you love African Literature, subscribe to this girl's page on YouTube. She does interesting reviews of books by African authors. She's pretty as well, so that might help those with poor attention span. I've gotten a lot of good African Literature recommendations from her. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNmEWEs6Aeo |

Hermix: The last time I read the book was during my secondary school days. I have not been able to get a hold of a copy since then. My search online has yielded no result. I have been longing to read the book once again. |

So I learned something today. I have three books by Author J. M. Cortzee. He is a nobel prize winner and an amazing writer. I never knew he was African and writes books set in Africa. I've always put his books in the Foreign fiction section of my library. Well, at least I have three extra additions to my African library section. |
