How can one shower beauty on moments of despair, sickness and rage without changing their truth? This is the question at the heart of Thea Khama's breakthrough autobiography, Rough Diamond. Tracing her life from birth through adolescence to her early twenties, and told through soul songs, Khama shares the light and darkness of her journey in discovering her place in the unknown mysteries of the world. With an emphasis on love's universal language of healing, Khama tells her story of endurance and pain, but also of the unspoken connections that link us all together; for every aching memory there is another of hope and kindness. Insightful and heartfelt, Rough Diamond is the story of one woman's discovery of herself and the spiritual world.
