I [found I] had accidentally ordered a masterpiece … It is a beautifully written, life-affirming, thought provoking story. Andrew Crofts (ghostwriter to celebrities) on his blog. This deeply moving book will leave you thoughtful for long after you have read it. Ann Widdecombe Reality and myths reinforce each other as the title suggests and you are left feeling the vulnerability of humanity. Yasmin Alibhai-Brown Grips the reader subtly … A stunningly haunting debut. Lesley Mason on The Book Bag My favourite book with an African setting … and one of my top ten books of the year.
