Zenzele: A Letter for My Daughter Paperback - 1997
by J. Nozipo Maraire
A moving and unforgettable literary debut, "Zenzele" is the letter from a mother in Zimbabwe to her daughter on the way to America, reflecting on her life and exploring what it means to be an African woman. Rich with insight, history, and philosophy, "Zenzele" is a powerful and compelling story that is both revolutionary and revelatory--the story of one life that poignantly speaks of all lives.
First line
Today is the first day of winter, I believe.
From the jacket flap
Written as a letter from a Zimbabwean mother to her daughter, a student at Harvard, J. Nozipo Maraire evokes the moving story of a mother reaching out to her daughter to share the lessons life has taught her and bring the two closer than ever before. Interweaving history and memories, disappointments and dreams, "Zenzele tells the tales of Zimbabwe's struggle for independence and the men and women who shaped it: Zenzele's father, an outspoken activist lawyer; her aunt, a schoolteacher by day and secret guerrilla fighter by night; and her cousin, a maid and a spy.
Rich with insight, history, and philosophy, "Zenzele is a powerful and compelling story that is both revolutionary and revelatory--the story of one life that poignantly speaks of all lives.
