Produktbeschreibung

Hundreds of kilometres away from Johannesburg, on a farm in the South African Free State province, the shadow of Alan Silverman (A Beautiful Family) hangs over the lives and future of the van Zyl family.

Annamari made one mistake in her youth: Alan Silverman. It was a mistake that that will haunt her always.. It's a mistake that can destoy the people she loves.

Set during the death throes of the Apartheid era and the emergence of the "new" South Africa, When Time Fails follows Annamari and her family as they struggle to come to terms with a changing world.and their place in it.

How will she deal with the agony of watching her carefully constructed web of lies disintegrate?

Autorenporträt

I was born and raised in Johannesburg's northern suburbs, the youngest daughter of an extraordinarily ordinary, happy, stable, traditional (rather than observant) Jewish family. After matriculating at Northview High School, I went to Rhodes University in Grahamstown where I completed a B. Journalism degree. This was followed by a "totally useless" - according to my parents - English Honours degree (first class), also at Rhodes. I started my career as a reporter on a daily newspaper at the dawning of the turbulent 1980s. During this period, I interviewed, among others, Frank Sinatra, Jeffrey Archer, Eugene Terre'blanche and Desmond Tutu. I caught crocodiles; avoided rocks and tear smoke canisters in various South African townships; stayed awake through interminable city council meetings and criminal and civil court cases - and learned to interpret balance sheets and understand economic jargon. I also married - and for 32 years and one week remained happily married to - my news editor, Poen de Villiers. After the birth of our two daughters, I 'crossed over' into Public Relations where I stayed for many years. More recently, I turned to freelance wordsmithing to earn my daily crust. The unexpected death of a childhood friend and colleague in 2011 spurred me to take stock of my life. A few months later, I started writing A Beautiful Family. My second novel, When Times Fails, the second book of what has become the Silverman Saga trilogy, was released in October 2015. Book 3 in the trilogy, Deceive and Defend, is scheduled for release in June 2018.
