This Is My Life

About the Book

This book is not about the political history of Apartheid South Africa; it is about an extraordinary South African woman’s life. It depicts where she was born, and chronicles her courageous journey into exile to Lesotho, Zambia, Zaire, and Britain, culminating with a diplomatic assignment in the United States of America. This is where the politics of the day intersects with personal lives, making us all more deeply appreciative of how profoundly the ‘personal is political’.
