How far must we go to reach our goals? How much must we sacrifice? What connects us to people we meet along the way? Dukuza and Nomona leave their rural homes in search of fame. Ambition tears them apart and they go through difficult times. Eventually they do win some recognition – Dukuza as a playwright, Nomona as dancer – but at a price. Both come to realise that to grow as a person, painful experiences and the breaking of ties are necessary. A story of ambition and growth for young people embarking on life’s journey.
How should we respond to horrifying injustices perpetrated upon loved ones? Vengefully? Or is there a different way that builds and affirms our shared humanity? Democracy has come to South Africa and Dukuza is determined to follow his calling as a playwright, writing about how people can connect. Then he is told the appalling truth about his parents' deaths. His life veers off course. Will he choose the power of the pen - or the panga? An inspiring story for young people about racist cruelty, revenge, forgiveness and redemption. The book can be read on its own or as a sequel to the CAPS-approved Senior Phase novel, Beautiful Hope, by the same author.
