'SISONKE Msimang was born in exile to South African parents—a freedom fighter and an accountant— and raised in Zambia, Kenya and Canada before studying in the US as an undergraduate. Her family returned to South Africa after apartheid was abolished in the early 1990s.
'Always Another Country is the story of a young girl’s path to womanhood—a journey that took her from Africa to America and back again, then on to a new home in Australia.
'Frank, fierce and insightful, Sisonke reflects candidly on growing up stateless, the naive, heady euphoria of returning at last to her parents’ homeland, and her disillusionment with present-day South Africa and its new elites. Hers is a bold new voice on feminism, race and politics: in her beloved South Africa, in Australia, and around the world.'
