Learning Monkey and Crocodile

"Nick Wood's short stories are powerful, impassioned visions of worlds and worldviews remade by way of redemptive engagement with the spirits of the earth and the earth of the spirit. Joining ancestral wisdom and transformative technologies, combining searing self-scrutiny with joyous awareness of the Other, Learning Monkey and Crocodile is a book for Africa and for all of us."

Nick Gevers

"Wood's characterization is excellent." Strange Horizons

"This is a gut-puncher of a novel; original, brilliantly written, and a page-turner of note." Sarah Lotz on Bridges

"Politically acute and powerful, with its heart in the right place... in many ways a 'textbook story', because it's so well done." Ian Watson on Bridges
