The Glass Barrier - Joy Packer

Growing up together in close intimacy, exchanging hopes and confidences, then discovering that there is a barrier between them, transparent but impermeable...that is the situation between the young people in this book. The situation occurs everywhere, but here there are special tensions, because this is a book about young South Africans.This story has in it all the light and shadow of the African scene it shows us the South Africans, white, coloured and black, as they see themselves. Lady Packer, who attended personally throughout the inquiry into the Langa riots (fully and dramatically reported in this book) has written an absorbing novel; it is her richest and most striking book.
