Mhudi is a South African novel by Sol Plaatje first published in 1930, and one of the first published African novels and the first novel by a black African to be published in English. The novel was republished many times subsequently, including in the influential Heinemann African Writers Series.

The novel is a political historical novel which explores the development of the Traansval kingdom, led by Matabeleland.[1] The novel was originally finished in 1920, but Plaatje was unable to get the novel published.[2] The novel re-invisions the standard Euro-centric narrative of history which supported Apartheid and its racist infrastructure.[2]

Plaatje described the novel as a romance, comparing it to Zulu novels of H. Rider Haggard.[1]
