Description: This is a story of human rights, love, freedom, and enslavement. The novel is set in South Africa, home to five distinct populations: the native Bantu, Coloured (the result of generations of racial mixture), British, Afrikaner, and foreign workers from India and China. The book is written largely form the point of view of the Afrikaners, descendants of settlers who traveled to South Africa (Dutch, German, and French). Both historical and fictional characters appear throughout the novel which traces the history, interaction, and conflicts, from prehistoric times leading up to the 1970s, including the Apartheid policies of racial segregation and separation introduced in the early 1900s, and the slow but steady reduction of rights for any colored person in South Africa.
