	Tsitsi Dangarembga - Nervous Conditions Voted one of Africa's 100 best books of the past century. Tambudzai dreams of education, but her hopes only materialise after her brother's death, when she goes to live with her uncle. At his mission school, her critical faculties develop rapidly, bringing her face to face with a new set of conflicts involving her uncle, his education and his family. Tsitsi Dangarembga's quietly devastating first novel offers a portrait of Zimbabwe, where enlightenment brings its own profound dilemmas. Publisher: Turnaround/Ayebia Clarke ISBN: 0954702336 Published: 2004 Paperback Price: £8.99


	Doris Lessing - The Grass is Singing This, Doris Lessing's first novel, received wide acclaim on its original publication in 1950. 'The newspaper didn't say much. People all over the country must have glanced at the paragraph with its sensational heading and felt a little spurt of anger mingled with what was almost satisfaction, as if some belief had been confirmed, as if something had happened which could only have been expected. When natives steal, murder, or rape, that is the feeling white people have.' Publisher: Heinemann ISBN: 0435901311 Published: 1973 Paperback Price: £7.80


	Paul Theroux - Dark Star Safari: Overland from Cairo to Cape Town 'A wonderful, powerful book, a loving letter to the continent' - Sunday Times, UK Paul Theroux sets off for Cape Town from Cairo - the hard way. Travelling across bush and desert, down rivers and across lakes, and through country after country - Egypt, the Sudan, Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Malawi, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, South Africa - he visits some of the most beautiful landscapes on earth, and some of the most dangerous. It is a journey of discovery and rediscovery - of the unknown and the unexpected, but also of people and places he knew as a young and optimistic teacher forty years before. Publisher: Penguin ISBN: 0140281118 Published: 2003 Paperback: 512 pages, 129 x 198 mm Price: £8.99
