A life-affirming literary adventure, On the Edge shares the journey of the author’s life from London to Northern Rhodesia, and then to South Africa under the oppressive apartheid government, where she raised her children, divorced, worked as a journalist and social worker, and rejoiced in becoming a writer. The book, in a rich tapestry of memoir, memoir-based short stories, and poems, finally celebrates Nelson Mandela’s election, and follows the author to the USA.
