The novel is set in the fictional town of Ndotsheni in the Eastern Cape and tells the story of a Zulu pastor, Stephen Kumalo, and his search for his family in Johannesburg.

He is shocked to discover the poverty and crime that have taken over the city, and his search for his family leads him to visit a variety of places, from the squalid shantytowns to the luxurious homes of the white elite.
