The Yearning - Mohale Mashigo

Genres: South Africa, Fiction, African Literature

192 pages, Paperback

First published May 1, 2016

 Yearning (noun): A feeling of intense longing for something.
How long does it take for scars to heal? How long does it take for a scarred memory to fester and rise to the surface? For Marubini, the question is whether scars ever heal when you forget they are there to begin with. Marubini is a young woman who has an enviable life in Cape Town, working at a wine farm and spending idyllic days with her friends ... until her past starts spilling into her present. Something dark has been lurking in the shadows of Marubini’s life from as far back as she can remember. It’s only a matter of time before it reaches out and grabs at her. The Yearning is a memorable exploration of the ripple effects of the past, of personal strength and courage, and of the shadowy intersections of traditional and modern worlds.

‘A bewitching addition to the current South African literary boom. Mohale
Mashigo tells her story with charming lucidity, disarming
characterisation, subversive wisdom and subtle humour.’ – ZAKES MDA
