Tropical Fish: Tales from Entebbe by Doreen Baingana

4.0

Eight short connected stories relating to three sisters in Entebbe, Uganda. The stories are chronological and they each offer a snapshot of life. The final story ended with me wanting to know what happens next, but that's the way of many short stories. The emotional impact of the stories varies, with the ordinary coming up against tragedy. The ordinary gives the stories their strength with one exception. This one exception gets so far under your skin, and I found myself wanting to change the end. I didn't know it was coming so I'm not giving it away. I look forward to reading more from Doreen Baingana. and more about the main characters here if possible.
