Publisher's Synopsis

Basali! means ""women!"", and is one of the most common exclamations in the Sesotho language, usually uttered by a woman and evoking women's admiration of themselves and each other. These stories offer glimpses of traditional healers, circumcision schools, witches, bride-prices, and extended rural family life.
