Summary:
"A car has collided with a Coca-Cola truck in Alexandra. The overturned trailer is spilling its contents, which residents are carrying off in their plastic 'Shangaan Gucci' bags. With two other bystanders, Lerato Morolong, age fourteen, helps the injured truck driver. The woman who drives them to hospital is Professor Ngobese, matriarch of the family at Number 80, the only house in the neighbourhood with a street address, aka Those White People. Here begins Lerato's relationship with the Ngobeses - Auntie Gugu and her daughter Janine, who becomes Lerato's bf and one half of the dancing duo, Two Tons o' Fun (because life's too short to spend in a tent dress)." -- Back cover.
