New author Petina Gappah is a Zimbabwean lawyer based in Geneva; she has just published a collection of 13 short stories.
Petina visited us here at Bush House and Bola Mosuro asked if the title story 'An Elegy for Easterly' - in which a community struggles to survive evictions whilst maintaining alliances, petty grievances and even prejudices - was based on a true story or if she just imagined the painful experiences people were going through.

I haven't read it yet, but it is on my list of Zimbabwean books to purchase this year and I am certainly looking forward to it. The publicity Gappah is getting is rubbing off on all of us-almost as if the whole world, including our compatriots had forgotten that Zimbabwe has a vibrant and eclectic literary scene. Good work.
