Theodora's power encircles Sarah and threatens all that she cares about. Yet she feels that her own (illustrator). Book Club Edition. The Hong Kong residence in which she is staying is called the Pavilion of Apricots. It is a beautiful palace filled with an extraordinary art collection, but for Sarah Brent, it has become a prison, the scene of events over which she has no control, which threaten to overwhelm her career, her great love- and even her life. Sarah is an ambitious young woman who is a specialist in fine jewels, a designer as well as an agent for wealthy collectors. She is employed by Theodora Paradine, a ruthless American woman of whom Sarah says, "I have worked for Theodora for nearly two years, long enough to know that if she wants something-a jewel, a house or a man-her money will get it for her." Theodora's power encircles Sarah and threatens all that she cares about. Yet she feels that her own success is tied to her relationship with Theodora, and she makes great sacrifices to sustain it. For example, as part of her job, she must travel all over the world to jewel auctions to bid on great pieces. This responsibility has led to the breakup of her marriage to her physician-husband Maritus. Now Sarah has come to Hong Kong, where she grew up, to see her father and to perform some professional duties for Theodora. Almost as soon as she arrives on the island she helps Theodora acquire an ancient and extremely valuable jade belt. Sarah soon suspects that the beautiful object has been stolen from the People's Republic of China, but when she tries to rectify the situation, she runs into a terrifying sequence of events which seems to involve the people she cares most about in the world: Marius, her estranged husband, and her beloved father.

Played out against the opulence of Beverly Hills, the elegance of Paris, the ruthless worlds of high fashion and international movie-making, this is the story of Billy Ikehorn and her metamorphosis into one of the world's most desirable women. Once she had been the desperately unhappy and unattractive daughter of a reclusive doctor, the "poor relation" in an aristocratic Boston family. Now, she was beautiful, glamorous, and sought after.and she gloried in it. Unleashing her long-pent-up passion, Billy moved from one man to the next until she found Ellis Ikehorn, nearly forty years her senior and ruler of a vast industrial empire. At their villa on the French Riviera, their apartment in Paris, or their vineyard estate in California, Billy learned to forget the pain of her past. Their happiness was total but brief. After five ecstatic years, Billy was alone once more. To fill the growing, dreadful void, she created Scruples, a playland specialty shop where the rich could indulge their most lavish desires. For some, Scruples was the beginning of a dream come true-for Billy, it was the first step toward finding her real self and her desires. With penetrating insight and shocking detail, Judith Krantz intimately evokes the public and private worlds of the super wealthy, the ambitious, and the talented. A keen observer and a brilliant storyteller, she vividly portrays the raw sexuality, the needs and the drives of the world's most beautiful people. An important contribution to an immensely popular genre, Scruples will leave millions of readers breathlessly awaiting the next Judith Krantz novel.

A beautiful lake, long the center of their lives, is drying up, and they must move across a hostile African desert to seek better conditions. The hardships overcome by this intrepid band- hunters, wanderers, artists- ar (illustrator). Book Club Edition. The story begins 15,000 years ago with a clan of small brown people- the San, later called "Bushmen". A beautiful lake, long the center of their lives, is drying up, and they must move across a hostile African desert to seek better conditions. The hardships overcome by this intrepid band- hunters, wanderers, artists- are minor compared with what will eventually confront those who come after them. Some of these are next shown in the 15th century toiling in the gold mines that enrich the black empire of Zimbabwe. They are overseen by Nxumalo, who has achieved power and fortune in that great city and who is an ancestor of one of the three principal families in this book. The first European settlement in South Africa is a Dutch out post established in 1652 at the Cape of Good Hope. An original settler at the Cape is Willem van Doorn. Born in Java to a prominent Dutch family, he is a member of the first of the ten generations of Van Doorns who dominate this novel and an early contributor to the racial mixture that will later be despised and repressed as the Coloureds. He is a pioneer in the eastward movement which spreads his family and their countrymen to the Indian Ocean. For a century and a half there is little to deter the enemy; the San and the Khoikoi ("Hot-tentots") are destroyed or pushed aside, and other European immigrants quickly assimilated. But the end of the 18th century brings more formidable obstacles; the Boers' expansion to the east is encroaching on the territories of potent black tribes like the Xhosa and the Zulu; and in 1795 the English occupy the Cape, soon ceded to Great Britain by Holland. Early 19th century English settlers arrive, causing different conflicts, leading to the Boer War (1899-1902). The military victory of the British is converted by the Boers into a political triumph.20th century approaches its end, they have become a rich, powerful, independent nation. Apartheid comes about, difficult to oppose.
