The chronicles of a Cry Baby

BRYANSTON - Author Lauren Liebenberg launched her book Cry Baby at the Hobart Grove Shopping Centre in Bryanston.

Supporters and fans of Liebenberg’s work gathered at the shopping centre to have their copy of the book autographed.

She said the central theme is about how a supermom meets a problem child, and then it’s up to the reader to figure out which one of the two is really lost.

Liebenberg added, “The book is a story about boyhood, about motherhood, about what binds families, the past to the present, about suffocation and deliverance. It is at once a stinging satirical slap across the face of barren suburbia and a poignant hymn to the extraordinary beauty in ordinary lives.”
