Poached Eggs

The short story, Poached Eggs, is the joint winner inaugural Gerald Kraak Award. Featured in Pride and Prejudice Anthology, published by The Other Foundation, (South Africa).

Pride and Prejudice is a collection of the short-listed entries to the inaugural award, named after Gerald Kraak (1956–2014), who was a passionate champion of social justice and an anti-apartheid activist.

Poached Eggs is described as a subtle, slow and careful rendering of the everyday rhythms of domestic terror that pays homage to the long history of women’s resistance; yet with wit and humour and grit, the story also sings of freedom, of resistance and the desire to be unbound.
