Kaylynn, Bertha, Janice, Laverne and Raquel try to navigate their way through domestic violence, migration, coming of age and the ever-cloying patriarchy that permeate every part of living in Eldorado Park, affectionately known as Eldos by its people. These women are at different ages and stages of their lives yet connected by this one place and a community that has shaped their worldview. Through phone calls, diary entries, poems and other forms of reported speech, each woman's struggles are told with honesty. Written, in part, from the perspective of Eldos, this predominantly Coloured township comes alive as the reader gets a look into the heart of a community that has been branded with the image of addiction and violence. The author's hope is to take the reader on a sensory experience that lays bare the sights, smells and soul of Eldos through the eyes of its residents and specifically these women characters. At its core, Those Who Live In Cages is a story about Coloured women, family, friendship, identity, and the many ways one can play the hand that life deals you."--Publisher's description. 546 $a In English, with chapters in Afrikaans. 650 0 $a Women $z Eldorado Park $z Eldorado Park $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Colored people (South Africa) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a South African fiction (English) 650 7 $a Women. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176568 650 7 $a Colored people (South Africa) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00868707 650 7 $a South African fiction (English) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01127180 651 0 $a Eldorado Park (South Africa) $v Fiction. 651 7 $a South Africa $z Eldorado Park. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01220681 655 7 $a Novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117020922.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B4EF2C62323411EC8B1165C359ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
