Summary: A clear picture of a colored South African woman writer
Review: This is an informative, in-depth look at Bessie Head's life and work, put into context by timely and interesting references to politics in South Africa during her lifetime. The book is respectful of Head, but does not compromise in its analysis of her many problems and difficulties. It is well worth reading and will encourage you to read Bessie Head's works.
