Lying Perfectly Still
"A novel about a woman's confrontation with the legacy of British colonialism in Southern Africa. Koliwe travels from Oxford to AIDS-ravaged Eswatini to take a job as an aid worker, but she begins to feel increasingly split between her British upbringing and African roots-especially when she connects with a local girl and aid recipient named Thandi. When Thandi goes missing, Koliwe's search for truth leads her deep into the mountains, where she bears the consequences of uncovering inconvenient secrets"-- Provided by publisher.
