Publisher's Synopsis

This is the shockingly brilliant debut memoir of a 24-year-old Greek South African girl, Christy Chilimigras. It is the story of a young girl growing up in Johannesburg in a space of pure chaos, raised by two addict parents. Christy, otherwise known as Mouse, is raised by Tiger, her older sister. Their childhood is strange, made up of crack excursions to Hillbrow on second weekends at 3am, courtesy of their father, and a dope-smoking mother. Tiger and Mouse's worlds are overturned when their mother proceeds to marry an alcoholic control freak, only to get arrested. This is also the disturbingly brutal story of two sisters, raised by a father who has been sexualizing them since they were toddlers.
