Title: My mother's lovers
Description: Draws on the memories of a son who recalls and immortalises his mother - a glamorous safari pilot and the daughter of a prodigious family, part Irish, part English, part African. The men she brings into the house refract the story of the whites in South Africa, whose sorry history runs from the Boer War to the loss of power in the 1990s.
