The five magic pebbles & other stories

Más información sobre el libro

This anthology of African tales is written with lyrical charm by South Africa’s proclaimed ‘Bard of Liberation’, the poet and author Don Mattera. First published in 1992 by Skotaville Publishers, The Five Magic Pebbles and Other Stories is now republished for a new generation of readers, with original artworks by painter Matthew Hindley. Mattera’s mythical stories reflect the innocence of imagination that is deeply embedded in the social fabric of South Africa, and continues to act as a cultural barometer as the country celebrates its 20th year of democracy.
