The Lyndi Tree

Description

Ginn tells us a giant story in which her own beliefs and experiences, as inheritor of white colonial narratives, stand parallel with her Nation and Africa's proud, defiant and resilient indigenous warriors; impacting each other in the complex struggle for liberation and meaning. Ginn navigates massive internal and external landscapes in times of war, trauma, fractured peace, conciliation and forgiveness in South Africa and Zimbabwe, with a high intellect and an open heart, alongside fascinating perspectives from writings by Letlapa and his countrymen, and members of her farming family. A timely book.

Reviews

An extraordinary journey chronicled by Ginn who tenaciously re ects on the meaning of life - and death - her orientation to pain, the Divine, and human interconnections across continents. Inspirational, gut-wrenching, and beautiful.
