ABOUT
THE BOOK

Straddling two continents, Shock Waves Across The Ocean portrays the struggles of people trying to make sense of their lives, and of the web of relationships that holds them together. Nico – the trouble-shooter, Denis – her long-suffering husband, Cola – puerile and enigmatic, Jeremy – the pimp, Peter, Hazel and Jenna.

They are all part of a rich tapestry depicting the strength and foibles, joys and tragedies, as well as greed and generosity that characterise human life as it is lived from day to day. In these characters we see an authentic reflection of ourselves, of those things about us that we find admirable and those we find less flattering.
