Picture this. She's from a lower socio economic family, left school
at sixteen, works as clerk in a factory. He's from an affluent
background, private school education, university degree, member of
exclusive social clubs, home in the leafy suburbs. What's the
likelihood of their having a relationship: Intimacy? - Probably
not. Physical? - For sure. But would it last? Not a chance. In
fact, they're courting danger. You see, she's Brown and he's White.
Big problem. This is South Africa 1974, the height of apartheid. In
her first memoir, Jennifer B. Graham takes an emotional journey
back to her childhood in a hostile land that legally classified her
as a Coloured - officially defined by the apartheid government as a
person who fails to pass for white. Throughout her fragmented life,
coupled with being both Non-black and Non-White, struggling to find
a place to belong, she carves out her version of an ordered world.
Her quest is exacerbated by the love of a man who dared to make An
Immoral Proposal.
