Winds the Road North Geraldine Cusack

Winds the Road North is the story of an ordinary family from the developed world who make a life in Africa under extraordinary conditions. They live in northern Tanzania and face the same daily struggles as the local population. Thirteen-year old Kaniah attends the village school and shares all the hurts, fears, and magical dreams of her classmates. But Kaniah misses the camaraderie of friends back home and begins to understand what it is like to live among strangers who will never really understand. Winds the Road North is a personal journal and cadidid observation of Africa today. It is honest, funny, and frankly unsentimental and will appeal to all those seeking to understand the racial and religious tensions simmering beneath our global village.
