About this product

Product Information

The government has cleaned up Harare for the Queen of England's visit. 'The townships are too full of people, they said, gather them up and put them in the places the Queen will not see.' Four waves of people have settled on Easterly Farm since then, living on the margins in homes that will soon be destroyed. Among them is Martha Mupengo. She has lost her wits, and gained a pregnancy. Who could be the baby's father, and what fate awaits mothers and children in this temporary, poverty-stricken town?

  • A striking addition to the Faber Stories collection

    The book is a short story of about 40 pages - however it packs a punch giving an insight in to a community and life I cannot imagine. The book is a beautifully packaged little story part of a series of 30 faber stories celebrating their time as a publisher. These books are here to challange, expand and share some of the rich fabric of work they have published
