Yellow Room by Shelan Rodger
Haunted by a tragic childhood accident, Chala's whole life has been moulded by guilt and secrets. After the death of the stepfather she adored, Chala is thrown into turmoil once again. Volunteering in Kenya seems to offer an escape, and a way of re-evaluating her adult relationships, although violence and hardship simmer alongside its richness and beauty. The secrets of the Yellow Room are still with her and she can't run away forever...
'A moving, poignant story.. where the real power and tension can be found is in the truths, half-truths and lies that shape the central characters' Mark Goldring, Chief Executive Oxfam UK; 'Compelling, evocative, sharply observed and exquisitely written' Amanda Jennings; 'Inner turmoil, unreliable memories, lies and secrets: Shelan Rodger writes about relationships and identity with a truthfulness we find hard to live up to' Aidan Hartley
