Entertaining Angels — Marita Van der Vyver

Griet Swart is a recently divorced, 30-ish woman living out of a suitcase in a borrowed flat in Cape Town, South Africa. A collector of fairy tales for a children's book publisher, Griet soon finds herself viewing her own life in storybook terms. While trying to restart her life with the help of family, friends, and an enigmatic therapist, she turns for comfort to the wisdom of the folktales she inherited from her Afrikaner grandparents.
