She is a really talented poet and a fabulous writer... Her novel Unconfessed talks about what common people live in African countries, and she try to explain it to us in a particular and interesting way. However I didn't know she was doing this because she born in South Africa... I thought the novel was just the result of the inspiration she got from documental of http://www.xl-pharmacy.net" rel="nofollow">xl pharmacy which talks about the hard situation people lives in "Black Continent".
