This lively memoir begins when an idealistic American woman, weary from a year of cancer treatments, takes a leap from the cozy bubble of Portland, Oregon to the raw and wild bushveld of South Africa. A chance meeting with six grandmothers from a rural weaving cooperative launches the unexpected next chapter of her life as she and the women join forces to face the challenges of poverty, AIDS, and the lingering post-apartheid oppression of women in a small rural village.
