A few years ago I read a book about a young man from South Africa during apartheid who would risk his life to travel back and forth over the northern border to Botswana.
He travels to Botswana and becomes a gardener for a woman who lives alone. He is black and she is white.
I read the book within the last 10 years and it has stayed with me. I don’t remember the name or the author, but I think this would be a good book for my book group to read.
