Helon Habila has focused on younger, newer writers, contrasted with some of their older, more established peers, to give a fascinating picture of a new and more liberated Africa. It includes contributions from Rachida el-Charni, Henrietta Rose-Innes, George Makana Clark, Ivan Vladislavic, Mansoura Ez-Eldin, Fatou Diome, Aminatta Forna, Manuel Rui, Patrice Nganang, Leila Aboulela, Zoe Wicomb, Alaa Al Aswany, Doreen Baingana and E.C. Osondu. These are the stories of a new Africa, punchy, self-confident and defiant.   A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers. The group started thirty years ago with one store in the quirky suburb of Yeoville and has grown through the years to a total of five shops, plus our online sales. Bookdealers is well-known for its collectable and used books. We also have a large variety of remaindered books sourced from around the world.  If you collect from one of our five branches there is no delivery charge. We also offer postal delivery (when available) and courier delivery, subject to a quote.
