An eye opening read.........

I bought this book because I went to high school with the author. I never gave a thought at the time to what it must have been like growing up in So. Africa during apartheid. She was "just a foreign exchange student" who happened to come from that part of the world. From reading her book I saw a whole new side of her and enjoyed every second of reading the book. I would highly recommend it for anyone - it is a great book regardless of whether you know the author or not!
