The Story of Lucky Simelane

Although several issues specific to South African culture are explored, this novel for both young readers and teachers—in which Lucky Simelane's quest for self-discovery eventually touches a raw nerve in the national psyche—raises universal questions pertaining to identity, ethnic origin, family, and belonging. Raised in a rural, black community and teased because of his light brown eyes and blond hair, Lucky's conflict reveals both his personal struggle for identity and the confusing public reaction to his cultural make-up.
