Book Synopsis

Khuku, a housewife, is irritated with the Muslims because their call to prayer wakes her up early every morning; her husband, a retired businessman, has been hired to cure a ''sick' sweet factory that doesn''t particularly want to be cured. Across town, Khuku''s brother worries about his son''s affiliations with the Communist Party, but only because they may affect his ever-so-gradually coalescing marriage prospects.

Freedom Song is a work of fiction that plays with big ideas while evoking the smallest aspects of everyday life with acute tenderness and extraordinary beauty.
