Mother to Mother is a book based on real life event happened back in 1993. The book is written by Sindiwe Magona. Amy Biehl was killed a few yards away from her home. She came to South Africa to study. She was murdered by Mxolisi, the narrator's son. The book is written in epistolary form by Mandisa to Amy's mother.
Mandisa is correct in saying that her son, Mxolisi is a product of his own environment. Mxolisi himself chose the environment where people, who radicalized him before the crime were the same who shamed him after the crime. Mxolisi joined the Young Lions group, who was responsible for circling The Girl's car, which led Mxolisi to murder her.
