Summary:

This is a political memoir of life in a rural South African township - with Andile M-Afrika weaving a creative narrative about events surrounding this country's struggle history, where Steve Bantu Biko played a pivotal role. Andile M-Afrika's memoir delves deep into his personal encounters with people, political events and day-to-day life in rural King Williamstown, Eastern Cape. What speaks volumes, are the pervasive echoes of Biko's presence, on those who shared life in this historic village. M-Afrika's insider's account about the everyday turmoil of life in the village of struggle icon Steve Bantu Biko leaves readers with a vibrant, accurately drawn impression of events which flowed through the village. Author Andile M-Afrika lived just across the street from Biko, and takes us on a highly personal journey.
