Annabel Fold is a modern, ambitious young woman of twenty-two, about to attend a post-graduate course at Bonn University to further her dreams of becoming an international journalist. Her upbringing in a Catholic family has been sheltered by strict, but loving parents, and attendance at an all-girls school. On the day before her departure to Bonn, Philip Fold, her father, delivers what Annabel regards as his ‘pitfalls mantra’, an oft-repeated sermon about the dangers of liaising with black and ethnic people. She has heard it all before and ignores his warnings, deciding that she will make up her own mind about her relationships…
Pitfalls is a novel about people and problems that can beset a relationship across cultural and religious divide. It is a fictional novel with a contemporary message about social values, race, culture and religion in Britain today.
