Every year when the Man Booker Prize longlist is announced, I think to myself: "I should read all those book and be an intellectual person that people see on the street and think: 'My goodness! There goes a well-read intellectual person.'"
This has never happened. The reading bit or the stranger admiration.
But, it's that time of year again and so I am here to talk about We Need New Names by NoViolet Bulawayo.
