More about the book

The concept of modernity helped Europe define itself as a center, positioning the rest of the world as its periphery. Being peripheral means being closely connected to the center in meaningful ways. The author, a white woman in Cape Town, reflects on her lifestyle compared to global peers while acknowledging her geopolitical context in post-colonial Africa.
