Jump and Other Stories - Nadine Gordimer

In this collection of sixteen stories, Gordimer brings unforgettable characters from every corner of society to life: a child refugee fleeing civil war in Mozambique; a black activist's deserted wife longing for better times; and, a rich safari party indulging themselves while lionesses circle their lodge. "Jump" is a vivid, disturbing and rewarding portrait of life in South Africa under apartheid.
