NOTES

Slawe Van Die Kaap: Rosetta's Letter is a haunting and powerful historical novel that brings to life the lost voice of Rosetta van der Kaap, a woman of color enslaved at the Cape in the 1600s. Discovered beneath floorboards and passed down through generations, Rosetta's diary paints a vivid and unflinching portrait of love, loss, and resistance in a world ruled by brutality.From the lush landscapes of Madagascar and Goa to the cruel confines of the Cape Slave Lodge, Rosetta's journey is one of unimaginable pain and enduring strength. Her voice-raw, poetic, and defiant-reaches across centuries to remind us of the resilience of the human spirit. Told through a chorus of voices from the past and present, this is more than just a story. It is a resurrection.Perfect for readers of historical fiction, feminist literature, and African diasporic narratives, Rosetta's Letter is a bold tribute to the lives that history tried to silence-and a call to remember
