Hotel Africa: New Short Fiction From Africa - Bog

For this sixth collection of stories seeking the most innovative writing emerging from the continent, we asked for stories of Africa''s hotels: grand and shabby, real and imaginary, pulsating with life and abandoned. Here, it''s not just the walls that speak (and weep); the corridors, kitchens, lobbies, bars and beds all have stories to tell. But none more so than the array of characters jostling each other across these pages: tourists, cleaners, children, beggars, honeymooners, cooks, soldiers, those travelling hopefully.
