"Appe would go on about our history and talk about how relevant our guthu was to people around. Our culture depended greatly on this kind of oral storytelling for history to pass down generations but my boys rarely paid any heed to my force feeding of stories. All I prayed for was if they would take care of the guthu."
Dearest reader,
I started writing this book only last November, but the research that has gone into it is decades long. I wrote this for my daughter, for her to be able to relate to history, our gods, our traditions, our lives, and to let her know that we are doing life for the first time too. And so have the women before her.
Each chapter is from the perspective of a different generation of the Bunt community. From losing lands, to gaining them, from losing faith to keeping it, from loving our daughters and our sons. And moreover.... from maintaining some traditions while we keep up with the times.
I hope you truly enjoy this book ....
