Send Her Back and Other Stories by Munashe Kaseke
3.0
I enjoyed the different stories that were told within this collection, and both the varied and shared experiences and perspectives they revealed for the reader. There were common themes across the collection, but they were drawn out according to each character's unique world and story.
I really appreciated the variety of protagonists across this collection and the unique world and character development of each. There were several where I wished they'd kept going ('Tsoro', for example), and if some of the characters from this collection appeared in longer-form stories in the future, I'd happily pick up the books to read! I found myself particularly engaged in one of the longer stories, 'Dear Aunt Vimbai', where there was more opportunity for greater character development, so I can imagine that the same would be true for other stories in the collection!
Overall, I enjoyed this book and the perspectives it brought!
