Whether a bed is shared with a book, a child, a pet or a partner, whether lovers lie in ecstasy or indifference, whether "bed" relates to intimacy or betrayal, it is memories and recollections of "bed", in whatever form, which have triggered the writing of these thirty stories by women from southern Africa. Well known writers Joanne Fedler, Sarah Lotz, Arja Salafranca, Rosemund Handler and Liesl Jobson will delight, but you will discover here new writers from Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Malawi, Namibia and Zambia, each with a unique voice as they cast light on the intimate lives of women living in this part of the world and the possibilities that are both available to and denied them. The Bed Book of Short Stories - some quirky and tender, others traumatic or macabre - is the perfect companion to take to bed with you, to keep you reading long into the night. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Beds|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85012788 |vFiction.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99001562 650 0 Women|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85147274 |zAfrica, Southern|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85001653-781|vFiction.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99001562 650 0 Short stories, Southern African (English)|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh87000058|xWomen authors. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002005435 650 0 Short stories, South African (English)|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/subjects/sh85121941|xWomen authors.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002005435 650 7 Beds.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/829528 650 7 Women.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1176568 650 7 Short stories, Southern African (English)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1117381 650 7 Women authors.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1177198 650 7 Short stories, South African (English)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1117377 650 7 Women.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0001509 650 7 Womyn.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0001516 651 7 Southern Africa.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1239519 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Fiction.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423787 655 7 Short stories.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026542 655 7 Short stories.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1726740 700 1 Kubuitsile, Lauri,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2004036576|eeditor. 700 1 Hichens, Joanne,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2006071485|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tBed book of short stories.|dAthlone, South Africa : Modjaji Books, 2010|z9781920397319|w(DLC) 2010289429|w(OCoLC)642847289 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=410998|zOnline eBook.
