NOSIPHO Hani, a 26-year-old from Joburg, has authored a book titled Healing through Literature.
It took her three years to gather the necessary material and another year to pen the book.
"My book explores the use of literature as a means to heal from the effects of conflict, wars, and social issues as well as a tool to enhance our mental health," Nosipho said.
Readers anticipate a journey of personal reflection that promises healing for their deepest wounds.
The book launch is scheduled for Freedom Day, 27 April, at Issys Coffee & Gift Shop, 1 Duncombe Road, Forest Town, Joburg.
"Given the current turmoil in the country and being Chris Hani's granddaughter, I feel a deep sense of legacy and purpose. My book is my gift to the nation," she said.

Nosipho got inspiration to write from the goings on in Mzansi, including gender-based violence, suicide and high levels of crime.
Describing it as a workbook, Nosipho said the book provides space for readers to jot down their thoughts and feelings.
"I'm driven by purpose in my writing. Where there's a problem, there's a solution," she said.
Through her book, Nosipho aims to heal both the mind and heart.
She's also a representative for the Graca Machel Trust Youth Advisory Group, a mentorship programme for the youth and working with Active Education to address social issues through education.
She's also founder of the Hani Youth Development and an activist.
