really liked it

As was expected by the author and the cover, this was another short read on apartheid and its darkness. A tale of race and motherhood, the struggle and judgement of a mother to raise a child single handedly in the society of that time. I did not know that so many whites had negro blood in them and they knew it better then to accept it (then, before apartheid was completely abolished). It is a story of a child whose face even a mother couldn't love. But then, she was a mother after all.
