Summary

Jane Evans begins her memoir with her career as a journalist in the big city, then tells of her moving to the small town of Viljoenskroon in the Northern Free State with her husband, Anthony Evans, a well-known and respected businessman and farmer. It is here, in the heart of South Africa’s maize lands during the height of apartheid, that Jane is moved to create the non-profit organisation Ntataise, marking the start of her activism for early childhood development (ECD) and advocacy for training women in rural communities to become ECD teachers.

Eloquently written and told with great sensitivity and humility, this is a memoir about love, loss, finding purpose and how one woman’s unexpected path led to family-like bonds in the unlikeliest of places
