The Scavengers

Meer over het boek

The Scavengers is a story of twists and turns in relationships and personal interests. These merge into a complex web that entangles a community at the crossroads of tradition and modernity. It is a tale of women in vulnerable situations, the clash of views on widows, and the place of masculinity in society..... will there be justice? Or even poetic justice? Moreover, The Scavengers is a story of the challenges a mother encounters in her endeavour to raise a son to become a professional she can be proud of. She gets disappointed when the son, having qualified for one of the most prestigious professions, rejects it, terming it his mother's dream. Will his mother allow him to pursue a career path of his choice?
