Africa’s Eden will be launched by Andrea Goldsmith. Read more about Andrea.

We are looking forward to the launch of Africa’s Eden, the third and final book in the Eden trilogy by Cheryl Adam. In this book Maureen, as a young unmarried mother in the 1960s, faces stifling disapproval and condemnation from mainstream society. Desperate to create a new life for herself and her baby, she rekindles an old romance and moves to South Africa under Apartheid.

But her precarious journey to Africa’s Eden is not the paradise she anticipated. Cultures smash against each other, family relationships are strained, there is death and despair, violence and injustice. But there is also humour, fun, family and friendship, as Maureen has to decide where her future lies. Is it in Africa or back home in distant Eden, in her Australian homeland?

REGISTER NOW. Tickets to the online launch are free however you must register on Eventbrite for the Zoom link. It will be sent out 24 hours and 1 hour prior to the event starting and will be available on the Eventbrite online event page as well.
