Overview

WALKING BAREFOOT ON THE GRASS Walking Barefoot on the Grass is a moving and evocative account of a woman's growth towards healing and reconciliation as she tells the story of a childhood shadowed by the death of her father and the tyranny of her stepfather. Sent to live with a string of relatives across the Eastern Cape and the Transvaal, Kara and her younger brother, Robbie, struggle with the emotional upheaval of a growing alienation from their mother. As she tries to cope and come to terms with the constant changes and insecurities in her life, and dominated by the implacable will of her autocratic stepfather, Kara begins a journey of discovery about herself and her roots. Set within the South African context from the 1930s to the 1970s, Walking Barefoot on the Grass is a story that explores the complex strands of human relationships; it is a story descriptive of aching loss and the redemptive power of forgiveness.
