One of the main themes is tribablism. Makhaya Maseko thinks he is running away from tribalism in south Africa. Ironicaly he is running into a country where tribalism means "meat and drink to them", that is, tribalism is important to them on a daily basis. The novel is writen by Bessie Head who experience apatheid, hence it is from her perspective how she describes and criticizes tribalism.
Another theme is that of Education. When Makhaya came across an old man before he jumped the border to Botswana; the old man indicated that it is Educatoin that man come to the "crossroads of life". With education, contradiction arises between the modern and tribal world. Makhaya strives to seek a balance in Human Rights, he said "People can respect him if they like, but only if he deserves it", however in the tribal world is it all about tyranny and dominance as Makhaya explained how they understood their neighbouring countries' languages because during the era of Shaka, the Zulus thought they could rule the world, that's why they "bothered to learn the languages".
