Description

'Good, good, now say cheese, say cheese, cheese, cheeeeese'. Whenever foreigners visit Paradise they always ask Darling and her friends Stina, Chipo, Godknows, Sbho and Bastard to smile - and sometimes even to dance - for the camera. Here are some of the things Darling and her friends have to smile about: playing country-game and Find Bin Laden, stealing guavas, gifts from NGOs, singing Lady Gaga at the tops of their voices. And some of the things they don't: living in a shanty, how to get rid of the baby in Chipo's stomach, the Sickness, losing their men to the mines. They dream of the paradises - America, Dubai, Europe - of Angelina Jolie, Madonna, David Beckham. But, as Darling finds out, these promised lands bring their own problems for children, parents and grandparents looking for a new place to call home.
