Zenzele

A Letter for My Daughter

Más información sobre el libro

Written as a letter from a Zimbabwean mother to her daughter, a student at Harvard, J. Nozipo Maraire evokes the moving story of a mother reaching out to her daughter to share the lessons life has taught her and bring the two closer than ever before. Interweaving history and memories, disappointments and dreams, <i>Zenzele</i> tells the tales of Zimbabwe's struggle for independence and the men and women who shaped it: Zenzele's father, an outspoken activist lawyer; her aunt, a schoolteacher by day and secret guerrilla fighter by night; and her cousin, a maid and a spy. Rich with insight, history, and philosophy, <i>Zenzele</i> is a powerful and compelling story that is both revolutionary and revelatory--the story of one life that poignantly speaks of all lives.
