Emerging Perspectives on Yvonne Vera

By Paul Dodgson-Katiyo

This collection of essays brings together new and exciting research on Yvonne Vera, one of Zimbabwe's most influential writers. Vera's landmark fiction explores subjects previously considered taboo, such as incest, abortion and infanticide. It also examines her country's troubled past from the perspectives of ordinary people, rather than official history-makers and politicians.
