None to Accompany Me
Nadine Gordimer
About South Africa in transition. Mandela has been released but
the new government not yet formed. Also the story of a marriage
unraveling against the background of events in South Africa. Not
an easy read, could only read a bit at a time. Full of insights.

Jean had read lots of this author and has really liked her work
but this was difficult (as Caroline had said). It's about South
Africa at the time of the introduction of majority rule. It was
interesting, probably fascinating if you lived there. It's
difficult to follow the conversations, as the speakers aren't
identified. Jean was not engaged by it and could not particularly
recommend it.
