About the Book

For Mara, mother of four, and sole provider for her family, life has never been easy. In her community women carry a heavy burden as the world changes around them. In Botswana the tensions are growing as young people attempt to resolve the magicks of tradition with the technologies of now.

About the Author :
Unity Dow is the first woman in Botswana to be appointed High Court judge. Dow has a long record as a human rights attorney, co-founding the Women and Law in Southern Africa Research Project and is a member of International Women's Rights Watch an advocacy organisation. In 1995 Dow challenged the government over the 1982 Citizenship Act, under which Botswana women married to foreigners could not pass on their nationality to their children, though Botswana men married to foreigners could. This led to passage of a legislation that gave women the right to pass on their nationality to their children.

Review :
'To read Far and Beyon' is to take a trip to Africa in the hands of a knowledgeable guide, who understands your world as well as knowing her own territory backwards." --Keren Lavelle, Good Reading magazine "Unity Dow has couched weighty issues into a very readable and life-affirming novel, accessible to the young adult reader and unforgettable to older readers who might have thought they knew most of what goes on in our world." --Moira Richards, editor, Women Writers zine
