Halley's Comet

Beschreibung

In the final years of South Africa’s Apartheid era, an unlikely trio - a sheltered white rugby player, a black farmworker’s son, and an Indian shopkeeper’s daughter - discover the consequences of knowing the truth and having the courage to speak it. One sexual assault and a nation at war with itself collide in this timely, edifying coming-of-age novel about a tumultuous period in South Africa’s history and being a teen in a society rampant with racial and sexual violence.
