Walter Hambile Kondile is the typical âgood nativeâ of his generation, poorly educated and subservient, brought up to know his place and believe that âit was Godâs design for the white man to rule over meâ. Then Kondileâs beloved daughter, Sindiswa, a young struggle activist, goes missing in exile. Kondileâs search leads him to Lesotho and grim discoveries of betrayal that shatter forever his own âcomplicity of silenceâ, committing him to an irrevocable path of no return. This is a compelling and beautifully written novel by Mtutuzeli Nyoka, a powerful storyteller who tells his history as he sees it.
