Wake...

I had almost no idea what was going on in this story. From what I could tell it was being told from a child's point of view? It seemed like their were some references to a war and a lot of killing surrounding Johannesburg which is a major city in Africa. Further into the story though I think the author was writing about displaced people? Maybe people who were forced away from their homes because of fighting in their area and were forced into the city as refugees. There were also references to "the regime" and a reference to the regime giving back the children? Overall I didn't really understand the story other than to gather that their was a lot of misery coming through the pages and that people had been killed and displaced. Perhaps there were children who were left behind because their parents were killed in fighting. Without more background into the history of this particular time in Africa it is just really hard to understand what exactly is going on.
