{"product_id":"jeremiahs-wives-ray-mawerera-9781914287947","title":"Jeremiah's Wives","description":"Jeremiah's Wives is a collection of ten short stories by Ray Mawerera, each one distinct and uniquely enthralling. Mawerera exudes an unmistakable, vociferous passion for storytelling, an uncanny talent for penning entertaining narratives and bringing characters to life, whether it is a man navigating his volatile polygamous marriage, a group of rowdy boys recounting a failed attempt to build a treehouse, a newly bereaved widow whose husband dies under mysterious circumstances or a group of friends who discover that there's more to one of them than they realised. He does not shy away from being quirky or bog himself down with themes and agendas, but instead, focuses on telling his stories in a way that is sincere and intimate, and bound to leave the reader thoroughly entertained.\u003cstrong\u003eLazarus Panashe Nyagwambo, Author of \u003cem\u003eA Hole in the Air\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThese short stories remind me of little winding rivers that flow gently on their way, widening to embrace the mighty waves in places where suddenly great ships ride. Ray Mawerera's ferociously entertaining collection is about how love leads all of us home... A man and each of his three wives want to understand why and how they got together... A young widow already knows what her best friend's photograph was doing inside the deepest pocket of her late husband's jacket. But how many people know what she knows? A man drives round the town and at every turn, there are dramatic signs that there is always-always something to hope and pray and struggle for. In one of these stories, a man in a dry land pauses in his tracks and wonders what the world would say if they knew that... he is looking for a snake! \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMemory Chirere, University of Zimbabwe\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ray Mawerera\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1914287940\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781914287947\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Carnelian Heart Publishing Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/07\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.81h x 5.06w x 0.46d","brand":"Ray Mawerera","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48873951265023,"sku":"9781914287947","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jeremiahs-wives-ray-mawerera-9781914287947","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
