Gathered here is a beguiling selection of folktales from Zimbabwe and Botswana -
A girl discovers that her young husband might actually be a lion in disguise, but not before they have two sons who might actually be cubs.
Talking hyenas, milk-giving birds, clever cannibals who nonetheless get their comeuppance, and mysterious forces that reside in the landscape—these wonderful fables bring us the wealth, the variety, and the particular magic of traditional African lore.
