The second edition of To Kill a Man's Pride builds on the success of the previous edition of this anthology of South African short stories by retaining most of the stories, but also featuring more women writers and a new male voice, to make it more representative.The milieu remains unambiguously South African, with some stories set in rural areas such as the village, farm or dorp, and others in urban centres such as the big city, suburb or township.The varied perspective of the writers are broadly united by a focus on "pride" and its negation "humiliation" in the sharp struggle for life. All stories deal with challenge, and in each we find characters involved in a struggle to prevail over difficulty.Both the topical unity of the stories and the new and longer introduction by Marcus Ramogale, which is geared towards use by senior high school pupils and tertiary students, allow for sharply defined learning activities in the area of short story criticism.
