While I was in Cape Town I took the ferry to Robben Island and met a man called Ntoza: an experience I will never forget.
I described the tour of Robben Island in an article I wrote for an English language newspaper in Spain.
Shortly after the death of Nelson Mandela I wrote a story based on my experience which was published on the Cafe Lit website.

I've just read your short story Susan - it's so moving and powerful in its simplicity. The photos complement the story well!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Rosemary. My visit to the island was far more poignant than I anticipated - not least meeting and talking to Ntoza! It was a story I was compelled to share.
