Suzette, the eldest, is beautiful and determined to escape her familys poverty. Nicky, the sensitive middle child, has ambitions to use her intellect as a way out. Anthony, the only son, attracted by power and wealth, is lured away from his family by a gangster.
In What Will People Say? a rich variety of township characters the preachers, the teachers, the gangsters and the defeated come tives in the shadows of grey concrete blocks of flats.
Which members of the Fourie family will thrive, which ones will not survive?
