Makhosi will also have to confront her seemingly unbothered older brother as the turmoil builds in their home, in a society where male dominance is the norm. Mama must take all the shame and the abuse, her price to ensure that Makhosi pursues her education and has a different life, even as it kills her. As Mama slowly dies, the three of them must break past the stereotypes that have always governed them and figure out how to be a family without the glue that kept them together. 371 pages.
