From capers in the Transkei of yesteryear to corruption in the ranks of the SAPS, and a story of how a young American woman survived being a maid to become a published author in between, February's books look most promising. The celebrated Holocaust survivor and insightful psychologist, Dr Edith Eger, completes the bag with an Oprah stamp-of-approval book entitled The Gift: 12 Lessons to Save your Life.
Thanks Alison for a great tea and book discussion in your lovely new home.
