Literature of Botswana
text:
Most literature in Botswana is written in English, though many works are published in Setswana and a small minority are published in other native languages. Economic challenges limit a wider production of literature in Botswana, as books are often unavailable to citizens and authors generally make little money, especially with non-English writings. Fables have existed through oral literature since ancient times, and praise poems became a common way to recount a person's life and accomplishments.
