Rain: And Other Stories — Mia Couto

"Couto's work doesn't so much blur the generic and stylistic boundaries we normally draw as explode them.""The Boston Globe"

This new collection of short fiction from Mia Couto, author of "Confession of the Lioness "(FSG, 2015), offers a stylistically dazzling variety of pieces tackling both timely and timeless issues: the ravages of war, the legacy of colonialism, endemic racism, and more.

Mia Couto is the author of twenty-five books of fiction, essays, and poems. He was the winner of the prestigious 2014 Neustadt International Prize for Literature, and a finalist for the 2015 Man Booker International Prize."
