Whether a bed is shared with a book, a child, a pet or a partner, whether lovers lie in ecstasy or indifference, whether e?bedi? relates to intimacy or betrayal, it is memories and recollections of e?bedi?, in whatever form, which have triggered the writing of these thirty stories by women from southern Africa.
