No End In Sight

By Victoria Varley

No End in Sight is an absorbing novel, full of memorable characters and vivid scenes. Author Victoria Varley hascaptured the dramatic landscapes, the powerful racial politics, the very tastes, smells, and spoken cadences of apartheid South Africa, as they were before the modern era that began with the presidency of Nelson Mandela.We first meet Jessica Scott as an acutely sensitive child growing up in a family of modest means. Inclined to be a tomboy, she is thwarted and frustrated by her asthmatic condition. She is teased and bullied by her elder brother, for her trusting nature. To her robust musical mother, she represents too much care. In the hope that a change of climate will benefit the child, and appease her mother, her well-meaning father ships her off to his sister's boarding school for girls. But she is betrayed by those she trusts and learns some family secrets that will affect her entire life thereafter. No End in Sight is a coming-of-age tale with panoramic sweep. As the novel unfolds, Jessica survives both her difficult childhood and perilous young womanhood to finally emerge with a philosophical outlook on the unityof all creation.
