Our Lives are Made Up of Stories

Description

‘From the day he was born, I knew I would watch my son die.’ ‘Now it is my turn to be sick. I am twenty-five years old. And I do not know how much longer I will live.’ Wendy was sixteen years old when she discovered she was pregnant and HIV positive. Nine years later she died. But before she died she told her story. ‘Our Lives Are Made Up Of Stories’ is a collection of eight short stories, including Wendy’s, straight from the heart of Burlington, an informal settlement in Durban, South Africa.
