The ugly American : a Cape Flats (sad) reality / I. Barns.

"This is about a life of a young boy who had to make life changing choices from a young age to survive the streets of the Cape Flats. His mother, who can be viewed as an abuser, is also the one who never gives up on her boy. Gangsterism, love and heartbreak makes this book an essential read. In addition, parents and guardians can learn how to protect their children from the evils of the street." --Back cover.
