It is 1903. A lame and frail Malangana - ''Little Suns'' - searches for his beloved Mthwakazi after many lonely years spent in Lesotho. Mthwakazi was the young woman he had fallen in love with twenty years earlier, before the assassination of Hamilton Hope ripped the two of them apart. Intertwined with Malangana''s story, is the account of Hope - a colonial magistrate who, in the late nineteenth century, was undermining the local kingdoms of the eastern Cape in order to bring them under the control of the BritishIt was he who wanted to coerce Malangana''s king and his people, the amaMpondomise, into joining his battle - a scheme Malangana''s conscience could not allow. Zakes Mda''s fine novel Little Suns weaves the true events surrounding the death of Magistrate Hope into a touching story of love and perseverance that can transcend exile and strife.
