The Tamarind Tree: and other stories

Thirteen stories spanning several decades centred on women and the different phases, challenges and triumphs experienced throughout their lives. Stories that are emotionally challenging, filled with drama and told with sensitivity and humour. Love tasted, longed for and unreciprocated, betrayal and loss, adventure and misadventure. These stories cover all this and more and some may even move you to tears. They will also transport you from an idyllic beach in Java to the vast Sahara desert; from the cheap and cheerful London of the 60's to an antiseptic hospital in Singapore.
