Love and Hate in Equal Measure

Book excerpt: This book combines the first two stories in the JANANJA short stories book series. Love and hate in equal measure is a story about family, love and loss. It explores childhood innocence and the ease with which it is stolen away. It is a journey back into the past and the truth that is hidden between the lies. A story about struggle, life and the past. Rose tinted glasses is the second book in the JANANJA series of short stories. A young upwardly mobile woman is reveling in her recent successes. She is watching the news and having a conversation with her cactus. Sneering and scoffing at each story. Suddenly she hears a soft voice that puts in check her short moment of pride. A voice from her childhood. A voice that lets in memories she has long buried. Memories of sacrifice.
