Out of the Mouths of Babes

Julian, born to money, assured of wealth and influence. Gary, born to poverty and hopelessness: resentful. Grizelda, born to aspiration: the catalyst. Circumstances bring them together into a deadly triangle, whether of love or hatred, and set in motion the explosive process which will blow their lives apart. The necessities of character and the seemingly iron laws of society are hard to overcome. The sometimes fulfilling, sometimes disastrous dance of their relationships epitomises an ugly truth about a split, class-divided society, yet within its progress are the possibilities of healing. But perhaps these possibilities are only mirages. The legacies of an ambiguously tragic story are still strong forty years after it started with three births all on the very same day.
