Summary

"Unicorn in a Box" is a memoir blending prose and poetry to tell the story of personal triumph over adversity. On the surface, the author shares her journey of overcoming trauma and discrimination in her veterinary career. But the poet within compels the reader to venture deeper, as she chronicles her quest from South Africa to Scotland in search of freedom, faith, and identity. This is a story about the making and the breaking of a veterinarian. It's a story about young married life. It's a story about hopes and dreams and disappointments. But most of all, it's a story about love that makes life beautiful and magic possible.
