It Shall be of Jasper and Coral cover

The translator, Marjolijn de Jager won the ALTA Outstanding Literary Translation Award for her translation of Assia Djebar's "Women of Algiers in Their Apartment".

These two novels, written by West African painter, writer, playwright and director Werewere Liking, spare nothing in their satirical portraits of the patriarchal view of African society as they experiment radically with the novel form.
