Rose Zwi's stories embrace people from different countries and cultures drawn together by a common humanity: a political activist under house-arrest to the child of immigrant parents caught between two cultures; a city-educated woman returning to the arid homeland of her tribal grandfather.
With a delicate but ironic touch leavened with gentle humor, the awardwinning author of "Another Year in Africa," "Safe Houses," and "Last Walk in Naryshkin Park" presents characters ranging from a political activist under house arrest to the child of immigrant parents caught between two cultures.
