Faithin Omaha eBook Collection

Download or read book And the Girls in their Sunday Dresses written by Zakes Mda and published by Wits University Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two very different women meet during a long wait to buy subsidized rice and discover they have more in common than their poverty; an old man and a child share a last loving waltz; a cynical, disabled gangster learns humanity from a committed social worker, and a young girl finds her missing father and her role in the political struggle. This collection of stage plays, one radio play and a cinepoem, captures the essence of Zakes Mda’s method as a dramatist- a slow but intimate process of revelation (on the part of the characters). It is an artistic cooperation of the most pleasurable kind.
