Abstract

Although the cover of this interesting collection describes it as A selection from the 2002 Caine Prize for African Writing, this applies to only five of its fourteen stories. The bulk of the tales are, in fact, Stories from the African Writers' Workshop 2003 - by authors who were invited to a workshop held near Cape Town because their entries had been shortlisted for the Caine competition. The authors of this second group are referred to as youngsters although stories by the two facilitators (Veronique Tadjo and Peter Merrington) are also included here. The last page of the text usefully explains the rules for participation in the next Caine Prize competition.
