"You name it, this novel has got it! Strong female protagonist. Romance. Fighting against patriarchy. Fighting against white dominance. Inter-racial relationships and friendships. Building a better world through interracial, intercultural, male and female understanding. At a time when the world is becoming more and more right leaning, this book can serve as an antidote. This is, sadly, a big problem. Afrikaans, as far as I know, still tends to outsell South Afrian English fiction. But in South Africa we have 12 official languages—one of which is sign language. Imagine English only being your second or third or even fourth language. Imagine loving to read, wanting to read, but not being able to find books in your language. That is the problem. There are a number of small publishers trying to work on improving this situation, but it is a struggle."
