Could an Indian woman love an African man? How would Indians have described the crossing from India to Africa? The Indian community in South Africa has been largely ignored by writers and historians. In these stories, Agnes Sam has given vivid and imaginative life to the "hidden history." She explores the Indians' struggle with vastly differing cultures -- African, Indians, and European -- frequently focusing on the experience of women, who also must contend with a male-dominated society. Agnes Sam's South African childhood and her Indian past provide the inspiration for this collection of bright, vibrant, humorous, and compassionate short stories.Sam, Agnes is the author of 'Jesus Is Indian And Other Stories' with ISBN 9780435909215 and ISBN 0435909215.
