Reseña del editor:

This title includes authors for whom the Caine Prize has been the springboard to successful publishing deals - including Helon Habila and Segun Afolabi. Underlines the Caine Prize as the 'African Booker' by including a story each from the four African Booker Prize winners: Chinua Achebe, J M Coetzee, Nadine Gordimer and Ben Okri. The Caine Prize for African Writing is named in memory of the late Sir Michael Caine, former Chairman of Booker plc. He was Chairman of Africa 95, and Chairman of the Booker Prize management committee for almost 25 years.
