AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'After the birth of her first child Jo van der Walt, the young wife of a South African sheep farmer, discovers she is going deaf. Its effects on her life, in particular on her relationship with her husband Kobie, are serious. But when, through the help of Rob Stirling, an Australian doctor, a 'miracle' cure is achieved it comes back like a boomerang into the lives of Jo, Kobie and Rob. The stage is set for an explosive situation.'
