I was so honoured to see this wonderful review of A Place For People Like in the new issue of Ampersand Review . Thank you so much to Lynda Williams for this thoughtful and detailed analysis. “ “ Danila Botha’s second novel… is a pulsing cross section of one woman’s life in her early twenties, a thorough investigation of the deep seated need she feels for belonging and the concessions she is willing to make to maintain it… Hannah’s complexity is the book’s greatest triumph. Although her decisions lead to difficult and sometimes disastrous consequences her conflicting desires for both safety and stability and freedom and possibility generate a nearly unbearable amount of tension through the narrative....a delightful feast of messy, complicated characters, struggling to belong in a world that is quick to judge them. A Place For People Like Us is an insightful and nuanced study of the discovery, development and disintegration of acceptance as both a journey and the destination.”
Thank you so, so much 🧡🩷
this also also features an amazing interview and cover story about Anuja Varghese, poetry by Chris Bailey, Sneha Subramanian Kanta, Catherine Graham Jessica Bebenek , fiction by Sanchari Sur and so much more 🧡🧡🧡 I highly recommend ordering a copy

Pour moi, le confort nocturne influence directement la qualité du sommeil. En découvrant pyjama court pour homme, j’ai cherché un modèle respirant, ni trop ajusté ni trop ample. À l’usage, j’ai surtout noté une bonne liberté de mouvement, ce qui évite la sensation d’inconfort au milieu de la nuit.
