Stranger Than Fiction Indeed
In 1991, when David Houze was 26, he discovered a stunning truth. His South African mother, who had married an American and brought her then-two-year-old son to the U.S. in 1965, had left behind three young daughters. Houze’s search for his long-lost sisters becomes a suspenseful foray into two worlds: the South of the Civil Rights Movement and South Africa in the time of apartheid.
Twilight People: One Man’s Journey to Find His Roots by David Houze (University of California Press, $24.95)
