We Need New Names NoViolet Bulawayo
Publisher: Little, Brown and Company

Sep 18, 2013 - MAN Booker Prize finalist NoViolet Bulawayo launched her debut novel We Need New Names at the National Art Gallery in Bulawayo, last night, saying the book was inspired by Zimbabwe's social and political situation. It was like nothing I'd ever read before. Dec 26, 2013 - I raced through NoViolet Bulawayo's new novel We Need New Names over the weekend. Jun 14, 2013 - On Tuesday 4th June, NoViolet Bulawayo paid a visit to London's Southbank Centre to discuss her new novel, “We Need New Names”. Mar 12, 2014 - We welcome our new contributor Suzanne Grimes, President and COO, Clear Channel Outdoor North America to MediaBizBloggers. Nov 23, 2013 - My Thoughts: Say what you want about We Need New Names – criticise the pacing, the plot, the purposely-disjointed writing style – but please, please do not criticise the cast. Dec 19, 2013 - We need new names is fast paced, disturbing, funny and beautifully written, with Buluwayo's distinctive prose that manages to perfectly capture the different voices in her story. The evening was led by the African Writers Trust's very own Nii Parkes. Darling is ten and lives in an unnamed African country (it bears a resemblance to Zimbabwe) in an area ironically named Paradise. Sep 30, 2013 - There's something wonderful, and also rote and depressing, about how surprising, original and hooky good short fiction needs to be. Oct 30, 2013 - We Need New Names is the story of Darling and her friends.
