Nach dem Tod Ihres Vater kommt Natasha Wilson, Tochter einer Russin und eines Sudaners, nach Khartum.
My father struck lucky in the last years of his life. He worked with a Chinese petroleum company during the oil boom (likely to come to an end if the South, where most of the oil was, decided to secede in next month’s referendum) and he made quick, good money. With it, he revamped the house that I remembered as being half-built with dirt-cheap materials.
