____________________________________________
With Liaisons, Duncan Du Bois provides insight into a time that has shaped our society. Within the fictional tapestry he weaves, the challenges and tribulations of the Europeans who settled along the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast are revisited. Their interaction with the indigenous inhabitants and the Indians, who came initially as indentured labourers, extends the historical dimension Liaisons affords in understanding how our past impacts on the present.
