Unthinkable tales

The geographical background of these stories is drawn from the entire parts of Botswana of which I have had personal experience – that is inevitable – but I want to make it absolutely clear that no inhabitant past or present of that particular parts appear in these short stories – except where previous speeches of great leaders may have been used in verbatim but names used at the end as a remembrance of intelligent messages from elderly statesmen and women. The people and locations used are similarly imaginary. That such types exist indeed are prevalent in Botswana - is of course true – otherwise I should not have written the stories. But the people in this stories are not modelled on real people and if it should happen that a description of a character seems to fit a real person that would be purely accidental and unintentional consequence of writing a work of fiction that is intended to picture and typify a segment of life in Botswana. No particular living persons were in my mind when I wrote this book.
