NOTES

Read by John Maytham

Koba is a bushgirl, a hunter-gatherer from an ancient living culture. She's a survivor. She escapes death from white hunters when her family are murdered and fends for herself in a hostile land. Now she's in the greatest danger she's ever faced: she's falling for a white boy in Apartheid South Africa, where love across racial divides is brutally punished. Book 1 of this fast-paced saga introduces a unique character into romance-writing, offering readers a fascinating glimpse into a forgotten way of life and into recent black history. "...a finely drawn portrait of a disappearing world." CHLOE CAMPBELL Times Literary Supplement. 'Candi Miller has given voice to a people hunted and harried to near-extinction'. CHRISTOPHER HOPE. 'Salt and Honey ... it's a book to have and to hold and to savour... I read it straight off over several sittings. Each time I put it down I was desperate to get back to it.' DOVEGREYREADER "Congratulations also to Candi Miller for hitting the shortlist (World Book Day, Books to Talk About, 2008) with Salt & Honey. ... I just can't get it out of my mind. An absolutely stunning novel - the culmination of years of research, transformed by Miller's love for Southern Africa and her burning, poetic imagination - " MUSINGS FROM A MUDDY ISLAND
