About the book
"Julia belongs to the inner circle of Johannesburg high society. It is rumoured that all those not invited to her wedding had to pretend to be out of town at their beach houses to save face. But in the New South Africa, things have changed. The days of tea on the lawn are over. Julia's husband, Douglas, is a serial adulterer who is no longer willing to pay for the small luxuries she has always enjoyed. Her daughter has rebelled herself right out of her life. Julia doesn't seem to be able to manage the 'home workers', who nowadays appear to come with a will of their own, and her best friend, Caroline, is quietly considering killing her husband. Now Douglas's ex-wife, who is never spoken of, has announced her intention of coming to visit from London, bringing, no doubt, her politically correct credentials along with her. She says she's coming to see Nelson (Mandela)."--BOOK JACKET.
