Items related to The Old Man of the Waterfalls & Other Stories
Enter an age-old, timeless Africa - an Africa that lies sprawled in the sleep of aeons.
Where animals and men walk and talk in primeval innocence. Where the spirit world and ordinary everyday life mingle and merge. Where waking and dreaming tremble but a hair’s breath apart. The true feel of Africa is recreated in these 10 unusual stories with their strange, mysterious charm.
Although this anthology is aimed at readers between 12 and 15 years, one hesitates to classify it as a young adult book as adults will enjoy it just as much.
