Daddy's Girl, follows the trials and tribulations of the central character, a South African girl Patricia. . We witness her struggle, to come to terms with catastrophe after catastrophe within a society blighted by prejudice and apartheid.Review by Professor William Jones stated, "I have now finished reading your typescript. It reminded me of a quote by someone who said something like 'It's got all the faults a novel can have but you are a genius'.I found it spellbinding reading - so much so that the fire went out and l did not notice, your writing is vivid and sharply focused, and you have a wonderful style with occasional real brilliance. I love the way the plot darts all over the place as Patricai simply follows her instincts or whims or straight desires. You evoke South Africa with your brief pen-portraits of places, people and culture. I like the you you are specific - exactly what sort of motorcycle or car, exactly what she drinks or smokes, dress, soes sexually. It is full of beautiful girls!The academic in me wants to tell you to it an overall consistency of shape and structure and discipline - but that would be to stifle it. It has a terrific vitality and is bound together by the sheer spirit of the central character."
