Nadine Gordimer : Selected Stories

This collection of short stories gives a view of one woman's observations of the people and culture of South Africa. The stories are cleverly written and very thought provoking. The first story I read, The Catch, was a little difficult to understand. After reading one more, The Bridegroom, I was hooked and enjoyed many more.
