A sequel to White Cat, though it can be read in its own right. A kind of 'road movie' told through the stories of people involved with the two main characters, Hugh and Nobomi... starting in post-occupation Vienna and moving to Eastern Cape, South Africa, it confronts head-on issues of segregation, loss, separation, revenge and the aftermath of trauma, focusing always on ever present questions of human-ness and relationship. A book for all generations - enlightening through the southern African tradition of ubuntu.
