Foolish Delusions

In this uniquely structured novel, the interwoven stories of a woman and her great-grandmother living in Cape Town, South Africa are artfully combined with a built-in workbook meant to teach creative autobiographical writing. Though the narrative explores gender, sexuality, morality, and colonialism in historical Cape Town, it also offers gentle, smoothly crafted, and insightful reflections meant to transform the life of the reader as a parallel to the protagonist's own growing confidence, skill, and courage as she connects with her past.
