Summary:
"Free-spirited Amina has broken all the rules of her own conventional Indian community, and the new apartheid-led government, by running a cafeĢ with Jacob her 'coloured' business partner. When she meets Miriam, a young traditional wife and mother, their unexpected attraction pushes Miriam to question the rules that bind her. When Amina helps Miriam's sister-in-law to hide from the police, a chain of events is set in motion that changes both women forever. In a system that divides white from black and women from men, what chance is there for an unexpected love to survive?"--Container.
