The debut novel by South African born author JK Beukes. A compelling story about family, adversity and survival set in apartheid-era South Africa.

Abandoned by her parents many times as a child… Abused as a wife. Eve Emily Hanson’s story is one of survival. During her childhood, her ties to her parents are often fractured. Her marriage unravels when her husband takes to drink. Hope in a better to-morrow prevails. When another life—a happier one—beckons not many years later, two words come to mind: carpe diem. There must be life after disillusion, despair, and death!
