The Africa Reading Challenge

This has nothing to do with my dissertation, but since I have gotten re-interested in Africa by way of my spouse, Dr. Cuy, I figured I would take the challenge. More info can be found here. Basically, you read six books about Africa in 2008 and write reviews about them. Here is my list of books:

Coconut by Kopano Matlwa (South Africa)
The Syringa Tree by Pamela Gien (South Africa)
Before I Forget by Andre Brink (South Africa)
Dinner with Mugabe by Heidi Holland (Zimbabwe)
The Uncertainty of Hope by Valerie Tagwira (Zimbabwe)
Paradise by Mike Resnick (Kenya--sort of)

I'll be posting reviews on this site. Stay tuned!
