Product description In 2003 David Smiedt traveled to South Africa and found a very different country from the one he left in 1989 at the age of 19. This stirring memoir covers Smiedt’s travels across a post-Apartheid nation full of confusion and contradictions as he searches for his long-lost father. From Soweto to Cape Town, from Kruger to Kimberley, what Smiedt finds in this rapidly evolving country is shocking, entrancing, surreal, and stunningly beautiful. Review "A story of South Africa past and present, humourous, elegant and deeply evocative." —Bryce Courtenay About the Author David Smiedt is the author of Boom-Boom, Delivering the Male, and Prince Charming and a contributor to Cleo, New Idea, and Sunday Life.
