Redemption Song and Other Stories: The Caine Prize for African Writing 2018 by The Caine Prize for African Writing
3.0
On the whole, this collection of short stories is wonderful. Each one delves into intriguing aspects of the variety of African life across the continent.
I do wish some of the stories continued instead of ended. A few of them seem to end in the middle of the climax without a resolution. Also there are some words and phrases that will be unfamiliar if you are not knowledgeable about life in Africa.
All that being said, this is a really solid collection and definitely worth a read.
