Cinderella in the South: Twenty-Five South African Tales

A collection of short tales and sketches that portray life on the southern African veld, blending folklore, village vignettes, and episodes from mission stations. Narratives range from reflective accounts of rural landscapes and liturgical observances to local legends, moral dilemmas, and encounters with sickness, death, and the uncanny. The tone shifts between humor, tenderness, and melancholy as the stories observe customs, small acts of devotion, and the everyday struggles and consolations of scattered communities, often closing with quiet moral or contemplative notes.
