Publisher's Synopsis
From Humble Beginnings, tells the fascinating story of a young African child's tenacious determination to fight her way out of a life dominated by poverty, abuse, rape and the devastating effects of being abandoned by one parent and losing the other. It is a story that will resonate with readers from all backgrounds. Vicky, through her written words, brings awareness to the obstacles faced by those who are marginalised and ridiculed for their life situations, beliefs and lack of financial and mental well-being. You will be drawn into her world as she rises above the many obstacles placed in her path towards freedom from dire circumstances and the old-fashioned traditions that only served to try suppress and hinder her ability to aim high.
