In this powerful, poignant and distinctively South African collection of short stories, Rayda Jacobs - leaving suddenly for Canada at the age of 21, to return for good only 27 years later - seeks to understand the deep marks that South Africa has left upon her. Frequently funny, often serious, always deceptively simple - these 'postcards' are the compassionate yet challenging creation of a gifted storyteller.
