书籍简介

在比勒陀利亚郊外的一个农场，斯瓦特家族正在为母亲的葬礼聚会。年轻一代的安东和阿莫尔憎恨家族的一切--尤其是他们对待这位为他们工作了一辈子的黑人妇女。莎乐美应该得到她自己的房子，自己的土地......然而，不知何故，这个誓言被小心翼翼地忽略了。

On a farm outside Pretoria, the Swarts are gathering for Ma's funeral. The younger generation, Anton and Amor, detest everything the family stand for - not least their treatment of the Black woman who has worked for them her whole life. Salome was to be given her own house, her own land...yet somehow, that vow is carefully ignored.
