Be, a young Bushman woman searching in the desert for the peace she remembers from her childhood, realizes that she and her people must reconcile new personal and political realities with ancient traditions.
Song of Be is an extraordinary book. You have to read it over at least twice to fully understand it, but its worth it. It focuses on the life of a young African girl, a bushman, who moves to a farming plantation with her mother. She finds out to much about her past, and pays a harsh price for it. This book is a realistic fiction novel, as the bushman were really put through similar situations. I rate it five stars, and recommend for anyone to read it.
