Hi all:

I have just submitted The World Unseen by Shamim Sarif.  Here's the
long synopsis:

In 1950s South Africa, apartheid is just becoming institutionalised.
Free-spirited Amina has broken all the rules of her own conventional
Indian community, and the new apartheid-led government, by running a
café with Jacob her ‘coloured’ business partner. When she meets
Miriam, a young traditional wife and mother, their unexpected
attraction pushes Miriam to question the rules that bind her. When
Amina helps Miriam's sister-in-law to hide from the police, a chain of
events is set in motion that changes both women forever.

In a system that divides white from black and women from men, what
chance is there for an unexpected love to survive?


Here're the comments I left with the scan:

I can best be reached at cstover165@xxxxxxxxx if there are any
problems.  Headers have been removed.  However, the fonts of the
chapter titles need to be enlarged, according to the new bookshare
policy.

This book was written by a British author, meaning that a number of
the word spellings will be unfamiliar to American readers; the
spellings of all words are correct according to the book.

According to the bookshare software, more page breaks need to be
inserted; however, I could not find any instances where this was the
case.  If there is a problem, please E-mail me, as I still have the
book.

Whoever gets this one, enjoy, as it's a very good historical novel, as
well as being a lesbian romance.
