In this selection of novels, meet some of those writers and take this opportunity to read their first novels. You’ll get an insight into their inspiration – that spark, which lit their creative imaginations.
We offer you, our loyal readers, a limited special offer on a selection of our Dinaane Debut Fiction Award ebooks,” says the publisher in a statement released on Thursday, September 3.
The Dinaane Debut Fiction Award is a South African prize that aims to promote new southern African fiction that speaks to both a local and international audience. For the past 15 years, this prize has unearthed great new literary talent within South Africa and now within southern African countries.
The Award is administered by The Jacana Literary Foundation, a not-for-profit organisation which seeks to promote and foster excellent writing from South and southern Africa.
