Patricia Schonstein Pinnock's slim novel, Skyline, has just been reviewed, or shall I say revisited, on The Mantle. This in light of fears of xenophobic violence rearing its ugly head post-World Cup.
INTRO:
For Cape Town, South Africa, the World Cup may have come and gone, but some things never change. Fears of a resurgence in violence surfaced as soon as the Spaniards went home with their winning trophy. In that light, regular contributorGrace Kim revisits Patricia Schonstein Pinnock's novel Skyline, which tackles a persistent issue in South Africa: xenophobia.
