Description
At just ten years old, Julie leaves her close-knit loving family in the city for a country boarding school in Swaziland to join her brother, Seth.
Julie's adventures offer an insight into life at a harsh, food-rationed religious boarding school of the fifties. This school, set in glorious African countryside, includes all the sports, horse-riding, piano lessons, performing arts, and high level of education that are possible to prepare a child for entrance to a British university. Listeners will recognize their feelings of alienation, loneliness, homesickness and being bullied. The solving of Julie's problem involves three different iconic heroes: a priest who fights Apartheid, a Sangoma witchdoctor, and a survivor from the Holocaust.
