Publisher Description: Upon traveling to America, Peter, a Zimbabwean man, fell in love with Maria, a white woman. They soon decided to get married, but discovered that not only was the color of their skin going to be a barrier in their relationship, but also the friction between their equally diverse cultures. As if those hurdles were not prohibitive enough, Maria's parents did not approve of Peter as an appropriate spouse for their daughter. Likewise, Peter's parents were not convinced that, indeed Maria was "a wife from the ancestors." It would take some courage and a lot of compromises for the marriage to even begin, and to ultimately survive. |
