About this book:

Amma is the story of Charmaine Africa who grows up in Bishop Lavis against the backdrop of apartheid in an impoverished, apolitical family. She follows in the footsteps of her grandmother and her mother with a singular mission: to keep her family together while everything is falling apart. Charmaine Africa is a writer who looks straight into the abyss, and then says something to make the abyss laugh out loud. This is a memoir that will sit deep within the body of every reader.
