In this gripping memoir, Christa Gumede Buthelezi tells the story of how she found her way from a troubled childhood on Cape Cod to the jaw-dropping landscapes of KwaZulu-Natal - creating the family she'd always longed for along the way.
In stunningly descriptive language that brings the wildness, beauty, and challenges of South Africa to life, Christa writes of adventure, hard-won lessons, culture shifts, love, loss, and the rare level of acceptance into the Zulu community she's experienced as part of the Gumede family.
