A Shattering of Silence
Faith's childhood is shattered when she witnesses a massacre in her village in rural Mozambique. She escapes, but loses everything - her parents, her home, her identity and her voice. A Shattering of Silence charts Faith's quest to find a place for herself in war-torn Mozambique, where she is caught between the white colonials and the local resistance. Karodia's fastmoving novel undermines traditional views of the role of women and the nature of resistance. It is a spirited response to the brutalising effects of war.
The Long History of the Short Life of Clarice
The Long History of the Short Life of Clarice transits through time and space from the Florida Everglades, to the Inland Sea of Japan, to the high peaks of the Beartooth Mountains of Montana. The heroine of the story Clarice with her dog Pesky and her gal pal Sam, live a life of exuberance and originality tucked away in the of the Everglades. Clarice and Pesky come across a wide cast of characters from quite different walks of life, who all contribute to her exuberant life-filled creations and adventures. A sensitive old artist with a painterly touch capturing the essence of life, a young mountain man adventurer, and a mysterious sea captain healer make up a cast who somehow all interact with Clarice in her daily escapades of living life to the max. Oh, and a gargantuan green crocodile makes its presence felt to the community of the Everglades as both protector and confidant of their way of life. Zany, comical, insightful, and truthfully resonant, this book imparts great wisdom through the lives of these many characters in a profoundly sensitive way.

'Crikey, ' she whispered to herself, 'I've been broken into and I bet anyone a brand spanking new two-pound coin that it was that wee thief from next door, ' but when she went to look outside she couldn't find her window anywhere and that's when she realised she wasn't in her bedroom, she was somewhere else, but where and where were her treasured figurine
