This novel is an inspiring journey about the 'struggle' faced by Tambudzai, a black female, in a male-domineering culture. It is set in Zimbabwe, Africa and the descriptions are vivid. It is also a tale that takes the reader into the minds and souls of a number of very interesting characters. It gives a unique insight into life in the 60's in Rhodesia and centers on the coming of age of Tambu. I found this novel totally enjoyable and look forward to her sequel.
