A Long Letter to My Daughter, by Marita van der Vyver

A Long Letter to my Daughter is award-winning South African author Marita van der Vyver’s youth memoir. An unputdownable read that weaves together both love letter, to a daughter, a language and a country, whilst tracing Van der Vyver’s early years. Above all, it is a mother’s effort to make sense of a world that seems increasingly senseless.
