The Go-Away Bird and Other Stories, written by Muriel Spark.
The eleven stories in this collection demonstrate the strength and quality of Spark’s work.
Rejection is the theme of the title story. Daphne, a South African orphan, comes to Europe which for years has been the glowing subject of her dream: but reality shatters her illusions and she returns to the cape to fulfil her role in a horrific drama. At the climax of a story which often cloaks despair in irony and humour she exclaims: ‘God help me. Life is unbearable.
Several of these stories take place in South Africa and some employ supernatural devices. ‘The Black Madonna’, on the other hand, is a searing exposure of high-minded insincerity on the question of race and colour.
Penguin Books, 1963
188 p
