Klappentext

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Yesterday is a Zulu mother living with her 7-year-old daughter, Beauty, in their rural village of Rooihoek (English translation means literally 'red corner'), in Zululand, South Africa. Every day of her life is spent in the hard work of tilling the field to plant enough food for them, fetching water, cutting firewood and hauling it home, all while also trying to keep her daughter stimulated and occupied. She strikes up a friendship with the new teacher who arrives in the village. Yesterday is plagued by a persistent cough and feelings of weakness. She goes to the local clinic, which is an extremely long walk for her and Beauty. She waits all day in the long queue to see the doctor, only to be turned away at the end of the day without having seen the doctor. She brushes it off, saying that she is not that ill.
