Confrontation

Confrontation is a memoir based on real events. Set in the early nineties, it follows the journey of a child growing up in South-Africa's season of change.
But all is not as it seems - biologically, domestically, emotionally - three words that immediately takes shape like the head, neck and tail of a monster brooding beneath the bed.
Domestic unrest casts a thick veil over a much greater problem.
“One of your greatest challenges in this world, my darling, would be men … It's a shame because you think you're the relationship type?”
So-called advice from a friend who suggested being gay might be a better option than what she was contemplating. Not that she had a choice. She wasn't entirely herself yet, and that was the problem.
Kirsty Steinberg is the pen name for the author. Confrontation is her debut work
