And the Girls in Their Sunday Dresses : Four Works

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.Mda, Zakes is the author of 'And the Girls in Their Sunday Dresses : Four Works' with ISBN 9781592212774 and ISBN 1592212778.
