Standing on the Bridge

About this ebook
Luyando and Tumelo meet again after almost a decade of separation. Tumelo’s appearance rekindles their old failed love. Meeting at the bridge, they share their most memorable times of love together. The bridge becomes an important point to share love, to just meet, as well as a point of departure and harsh separation.
This is the story of a passionate love affair and a love that soon finds itself embroiled in and haunted by historical realities of the couple’s past, their culture and personalities, as well as problems related to emerging issues of global warming. With the threat of secession in Tumelo’s area of origin, their national unity is suddenly at stake.
When all things around threaten to crumble down, will love, now further put to the test, still prevail?
