It started in Virgin Upper Class, was followed by a load of fabulous socializing with the ultra hip, was interrupted by a brief sojourn to Paris, and then continued with culture, more socializing, fabulous feasts, loads of only-in-London shopping and loads of literary chats with the most fabulous, divine, gorgeous and insightful literati… White Knights is now available at daunt books in Chelsea (fabulous wonderful amazing news!)… and then ended with an exhausted sigh back in Virgin Upper Class. Life is wonderful!

More about the fun coming soon, in the meantime, pics!

All I can say is WOW! Cape Town’s literary fashionista, media, and most stylish and sassy ignored the bitter cold and winter thunder storm to sip cocktails, chatter excitedly and generally have a ball at the CT launch! It was stupendous, amazing, gorgeous and divine! And the party went on and on and on…I was over the moon, absolutely blown away and utterly honoured at the turnout, reponse and warmth of the CT crowd. It was the most gorgeous wonderful evening!

The fabulous photos were taken by the phenomenally talented Sally Rodrigues (click here to view divine slideshow). Sally’s portfolio speaks for itself but her passion is remarkable… oops, gushing! Grin. Happy to pass on sally’s details if anyone has occasion they need captured by such a gorgeous, charming, divine chick simply oozing talent…

And so on Sunday, wonderful Andrew rushed me out of the house and got me to SABC Radio Park on time. In fact, before time. Which made me giggle as clearly he’s identified that when it’s something super important (like getting married), I might arrive a “little” late. He was having none of it… especially for White Knights national radio debut with Karabo Kgoleng on SAfm Literature!

We were zapped inside by the gorgeous Tsholo Pelo who was totally lovely and seeing my butterflies, invited Andrew to sit inside the studio! Totally divine and very special!

Karabo is wonderful, bouncy and uber intelligent… and she had me on twinkle toes with her intelligent, spunky questions! She loved the book (yah!), was totally professional and completely got the book. Her questions tackled some of the deeper themes in the book, from women in the workplace, to the contrasting of investment banking and the medical profession, to the various foils and contrasting characters. She also tackled the larger themes of the book, such as homelessness, being an outsider and eastern mysticism in the western world… which is wonderfu, because the book was read intelligently, appreciated and I completely loved the chat! wow!

And afterwards, while I was still laughing with excitement, we drove home on a gorgeous highveld summer day and cracked a bottle of Life from Stone sauvignon blanc and enjoyed it in our gorgeous home, the threshhold of which my dishy husband had carried me over the the day before! grin.
