 * Keep per AUTHOR #3 "multiple book reviews" Publishers Weekly, Chicago Tribune, World Literature Today, Kirkus. Complicated by the age of the books (1990s) but with this many reviews still online, and with the awards and recognitions, I'm sure there are more offline in particular South African sources.  -- Green Cardamom (talk) 06:47, 23 October 2013 (UTC)
