My Brother's Book, by Jo-Anne Richards (used)

'Richards has an acute sense of place, in its small town and big city guises, and a wonderful ear for South African idiom. My Brother's Book is her most ambitious work to date. Moving subtly between past and present, it casts a searing light on the way we reveal and conceal our truths in stories.

- Ivan Vladislavic, author of Portrait with Keys (winner of the Sunday Times Alan Paton Award) and The Restless Supermarket (winner of the Sunday Times Fiction Award)

'Few South African writers can capture the complicated magic and cultural confusion of a constantly changing country like Jo-Anne Richards can. My Brother's Book is wry and moving and beautifully observed.

- Peter Godwin, author of When a Crocodile Eats the Sun and Mukiwa
