Sawubona

Sawubona, a Zulu greeting, 'I see you and welcome your presence.' A beautiful sentiment, the embodiment of paying attention, 'I notice you. I am with you. You are not invisible.' Inside this book are stories by writers who have done exactly that.They have opened their eyes and hearts to people, places, objects, joys, griefs and small acts of survival. Embraced what is broken, funny, tender, nearly invisible.No heroes in capes. No grand speeches. Just human beings on a shared planet - complicated, hopeful, lonely, ridiculous and brave.These stories do not wave from a distance.They come closer.They see.
