Can their love survive the prejudice they face?
Julie – a Kiwi girl, a red headed, freckle faced, plain Jane longed to wear a white wedding dress and see her handsome groom waiting for her as she took her walk up the aisle. She was waiting to find her Mr Right – then she met and fell for Kishore, a boy from India who had been in New Zealand for two years.
Despite her reservations she decides to go out with him.
In doing this, was she going against all that was deemed acceptable? How would her parents react?
If their relationship blossomed would Kishore’s very traditional Indian family accept an English girl into their family? Can their love survive?
Excerpt
In 1984 the big news of the world was the famine in Ethiopia. In December the hit song by Band Aid ‘Do they know it's Christmas’ raised thirty million dollars for Africa.
New Zealand was settling into its new Prime Minister, the youngest of the twentieth century Mr David Lange. He had a reputation for a cutting wit, which was sometimes directed against himself although he had a certain eloquence. His government implemented far-reaching free-market reforms his legacy, a nuclear-free country.
Lady Diana Spencer, her fairytale wedding the day she became a princess her innocence, her vulnerability and that sweet, shy smile on show for the world to see.
I was sixteen years old and even though it had been three years since that extraordinary day, I still replayed the enchanting scenes of her wedding over and over in my head like it was yesterday.
Doesn’t every girl dream of a big white wedding? I certainly did.
