About

In the tradition of short-story greats like Chekhov and Grace Paley, Malawian writer S.O. Kenani examines weighty subjects with a light touch. Delicately balancing humour and pathos, For Honour introduces us to the inhabitants of Chipiri, a village where everything begins under the kachere tree. From Mr. Kachingwe, willing to enthral you with his outrageous views on life for the price of a tot, and Zione, following her dream of becoming an au pair in Europe, to Mark who accidentally lands in a civil war in 'Nileland' during a plane crash, and Sister Fire arriving to adopt a Malawian child, these characters will delight and captivate you.
