Scatterlings by Rešoketšwe Manenzhe

Set in 1920s South Africa as segregationist laws criminalize interracial marriage, this intimate story follows a mixed-race family fractured by the state’s violence and a mother’s devastating act born of exile, despair, and fierce love. In the aftermath, a father and child navigate a landscape shaped by myth, memory, and the brutal machinery of nation-building, searching for belonging and a future amid grief, displacement, and the pull of ancestral roots.
