JANNALI and LAQUETA
Newly Released!
Unaware of each other’s childhood, Jannali and Laqueta are two women whose worlds become permanently intertwined. Laqueta is born into tragedy in South Africa as her mother commits suicide right after the baby’s birth, and Jannali is an Australian Aboriginal who must navigate her own world of ethnic prejudice. They suffer violence at the hands of ambitious and shameless men – to be crushed, it would seem. But both women are strong-willed and passionate about their goals, and fate has much more in store. Jannali and Laqueta is an inspiring tale of human spirit. The characters are compelling, both male and female, and an array of themes perhaps leave a question for a curious mind.
Should you be interested ‘Jannali and Laqueta’ is available at many online stores such as, The Book Depository, Amazon, Waterstones, Foyles, etc. Thank you for your support.
WORD OF MOUTH
Newly Released!
An inside view into the life of a dentist.
This book of twenty-one short pieces records the emotions and concerns of patients and dentist. It is funny, but it will rattle a few cages.
Loosely chronological, the story begins with the fear of pain and finishes amidst retirement and the morrow. Between, there are tales of feelings and minds. The personality of the new patient must be assessed in minutes – How?
Comments from dental colleagues:
‘Thoroughly entertaining. It will rattle a few cages.’
‘I enjoyed it immensely. I haven’t read anything like it.’
‘It’s too good to vanish into a drawer, somewhere.’
