Synopsis

Mother Africa shares her wisdom within this collection of more than fifty haiku, through the voices of three formidable women – author Marie Heese, artist Edith Bukani and voice artist Natalia Molebatsi. Marié Heese takes us on a journey, following the footprints of women before us, women amongst us; women just like us to experience the continent of Africa afresh. Enjoy glimpses of shifting landscapes, the shadow of a smile – fleeting moments captured in a handful of words. An ideal moment of repose is captured with wisdom and poise.
