dc.description.abstractLocated in the college novel tradition, Close to Home explores a number of the themes common to the sub-genre, specifically the ennui of university students from a wealthy background. The story's characters have an excess of money, privilege and leisure time, which leads to boredom and ultimate tragedy. The protagonist, Faye, epitomises the stereotype of a spoiled Cape Town girl- a personality that turns out to have a lot in common with the magnetic but ultimately dangerous characters of some of the best-known college novels.en_ZA
