The Girl who survived her mother -Moshitadi Lehlomela
Lehlomela offers a biographical rendition of her childhood experiences and how she got to discover and label her woundedness. She takes us through her journey where we start by sympathising, then empathising and finally those of us who have this would feel like we are reading our life story. I finished that book feeling unburdened. By writing her story, she named and voiced my wounds. I first felt triggered and then unpacked my healing. This book is for anyone who can't explain why they have a complicated relationship with their mother. It's not for the faint-hearted, but it's a worthy read. If you can't afford it and are in Johannesburg, it is available at Johannesburg Public Libraries for those with Library cards.
Ek het groot geword met Portchie in my ouers se huis - dis vir my onsettend mooi om te lees hoe Portchie oor 30 jaar sukses gebou het. Dit lees soos ‘n film.
