Book Review – Call and Response by Gothataone Moeng
Imbued with emotion and reflection, Call and Response will supply readers with a front-row seat into Botswanan life. In 9 beautifully written, self-revelatory stories, we experience the inner turmoil and contradictions of embracing cultural traditions in post-colonial Botswana, inevitable shifts and changes in shared bonds between people, coming of age, navigating familial expectations, and the all too familiar event and memories of homecoming.
Be prepared to traverse around cities of Botswana, and witness the characters’ revelations of themselves as they answer their call.
