Stealing Water - Tim Ecott



Tim Ecott’s family swapped Northern Ireland for apartheid Johannesburg in the 1970s. But just six months after arriving, the family was bankrupt and evicted from their home. Funny, witty and affecting, this is a very different African memoir about how the worst of times can become the most valuable period of a person’s life. (Warning - may contain strong language)
