Caine Prize-winning author Olufemi Terry talks about his debut novel, Wilderness of Mirrors set in Stadmutter, a multiracial city at the southern tip of Africa modeled after Cape Town. Terry talks about the changing political landscape of Cape Town and his novel, his journalism, and the inspirations for the book. Author Lola Shoneyin calls it: “An unsentimental portrait of young adulthood in a city both beguiling and perilous, and which reflects Africans as they are too rarely depicted: hybrid, modern, and shaped by their own profound contradictions. Terry’s pared but illuminating prose captures the weight of its protagonists’ search for their place in the world.”
