The Small Bees' Honey by George Clark
Fourteen polished if arid stories of betrayal and alienation in love and war. Brought up in Rhodesia and South Africa, where his family passed for white, and formerly a soldier in the South African army fighting in Angola, Clark is as much preoccupied with race as with war. Here, these themes are addressed in the first person by seemingly unchanging characters who share a similar-sounding voice, despite locales that range from Angola and Cuba to Florida.
"Clark draws on his own experience.. in many of the fourteen gem-like stories in this collection... In crisp prose, Clark vividly evokes widely disparate settings, from remote African fields to Florida department stores, and the shortest of his stories -- taking up less than a page -- are as memorable as those 30 pages long. A noteworthy collection..." -- Booklist.
