The boy from Selamanzi by Phakamile Gongo
Yalezo Mangesi had been retired for 10 years, when he realised that his retirement money was running out. He was a worried man. His children could not really help him, because they all seemed to lose their way as soon as they reached high school …
He keeps thinking about Kuku Madiza, who vowed all those many years ago that she would never forgive him for not marrying her …
The more things go wrong in his life, the more he starts believing that she has put a spell on his family; after all, she had said that none of his children would ever amount to anything …
The only bright spot in his life is his grandson, Andile, the only child of his youngest, Nomaza. He would not simply sit idly waiting for ‘the curse’ to stifle Andile’s future and hopes of success and happiness in this world. Yalezo approaches Kuku after all those years… still a very handsome woman, even though she still resents Yalezwa.
He need not have worried; Andile is a strong young man, and determined not to disappoint, firstly himself, and definitely not his grandfather and mother…
