Description

"Don't try to tell me it doesn't matter where in the world one is, death is, too. Whilst the facts might force me to concede that, I will still insist that Africa knows better about death, and keeps a hovel made from mud and grass, blood and shit, for it right down every dirt road here. Africa has a million ways of getting under one's skin and sometimes death is the gentlest release from those itches and aches. Here we live harder and we love harder. And I've done both. Headlong. The past cannot matter. It cannot matter, however much we long to hold onto it. The past is what we are given and the future has no shape. The sum of the collisions of all our private worlds, the future is not especially romantic or even exciting. It merely is so. And death waits for us all. Collision, chaos, life. Death and love. In the present the immediacy of living is either tormented by past shortfalls, or is terrified of future losses. Death and the future are absolute, just as is the past, and so we must choose. Do we live? Or do we cheat, and die before death decides to fetch us? Mostly, we just live on. And in living, we love. No matter what, we will love until we die. This is the final truth, perhaps the one I wanted all along. I will love until I die. And of the things that exist to remind me to live, I shall find them, and Africa and I will go on, for the meantime, hard on. Mariah Redfern: Heat StrokeScarred by the words she has cut into her own skin, Mariah's childhood traumas have created in her a heady need to perpetuate her own violences.

In the warm heart of the Africa she both loves and loathes, she is forced to examine herself...and the Africa she lives in. Her story is one of violence ...and redemption
