Description:In this diverse, exciting, and energetic bold collection of short stories, four siblings spend a nostalgia-filled and truth-revealing night in their grandparents’ house before it sold; a couple considers the bloom and doom of their relationship in the Namib Desert; a young mother struggles to breastfeed her newborn infant while confronting uncomfortable truths about her marriage; a post-apocalyptic Windhoek reveals intimate ways of surviving; rain in Northern Namibia brings much needed water and dreaded terror to the land; the life cycle of a frog traces a story of attraction and love; a man reflects on a life lived and potentially lost after a violent encounter; a bar filled with boredom becomes the backdrop for a rumination on time’s passage; fire and anxiety burn without pause — and with great humour — in Cape Town; three portraits of war provide glimpses into the lives lived through and around conflict; two young boys discover the meaning of friendship in a small town; and a protest ushers in new and uncomfortable truths for Namibia’s young and restless generation.Written with heart, curated with care, and designed with love, the 2023 Doek Anthology features emerging and award-winning storytellers from Namibia, Eswatini, South Africa, Zambia, and Zimbabwe that will surely become important voices in African literature.Produced with the generous support of the University of East Anglia’s International Chair of Creative Writing Tsitsi Dangarembga, the award-winning author of Nervous Conditions, The Book of Not, and This Mournable Body, the 2023 Doek Anthology is an important milestone for Doek as an arts organisation with great ambitions and ongoing projects designed to nurture a culture of reading and writing in Namibia.
