From 2022 Windham Campbell Prize winner Siphiwe Gloria Ndlovu, the complete collection of her multiple award-winning City of Kings trilogy, including The Theory of Flight, The History of Man, and The Quality of Mercy"Perhaps the most monumental trilogy to come out of Southern Africa" (Afrocritik)
In The Theory of Flight, Ndlovu sketches decades of history in an unnamed Southern African nation through the story of Imogen "Genie" Zula Nyoni, who lies in a coma after battling a long illness. As loved ones struggle to come to terms with their impending loss, Ndlovu recounts the lives of Genie's forebears from colonial occupation through the freedom struggle.In The History of Man, Ndlovu takes an excursion into the interiority of the colonizer. Emil Coetzee, a civil servant in his fifties, is left unmoored by the end of his country's civil war. His journey from boyhood to manhood, and the changes that befall him through love, loss, and war, will leave a path of bloodshed in his wake.In The Quality of Mercy, Spokes Moloi, the first black chief inspector in the City of Kings, investigates the possible murder of Emil Coetzee, the notorious head of the Organization of Domestic Affairs. In examining Emil's disappearance, Spokes has one last opportunity to solve the decades-old murder case that determined both the path of his life and destiny of his country.
