Exploring South Africa during a pivotal time in its history, Dervla Murphy's journey spans over 6000 miles across all nine provinces. Her narrative captures the contrasts of life in the country, from impoverished ex-"homeland" villages to affluent white neighborhoods. Through her interactions with diverse communities, including the vast black township of Khayelitsha and rural Boers, she offers profound insights into the social and cultural dynamics of post-apartheid South Africa, reflecting on both the challenges and connections within this evolving landscape.
