Review

Wow, I am blown away by the quality of your work! Very raw and very emotional. It is definitely publishable, if not for your engaging voice, then for the intriguing cultural story line.Again, truly a great book, I really enjoyed it. What a different life you have had growing up in South Africa to here in America! I admire your courage! And though the abuse you faced was absolutely horrific it was also difficult to stop reading-- truly the sign of a good storyteller.Best of luck to you, as I don't read many books like yours in a year (and I am not just saying this to flatter you). I think you have the next Kite Runner on your hands (a fabulous book, you should read it, I think).George/David is a very interesting character and the vehicle that carries the story, and as such he's not so easy to forget. I liked his ups and downs, I enjoyed the way he kept sabotaging himself, and he did make me laugh time and again. What I'm trying to say is that his story deserves to find its way into the book world.I had a good time reading your book and I'd definitely recommend it to friendsSo far, you've written a very touching and engaging story I must say, not to mention ones concerning self-discovery on sexuality.Your story effectively highlights humanity. Nobody is perfect, everybody makes mistakes without being condescending or patronizing or sympathy-seeking. Everyone just is.Your autobiography is well-written, charming, painful, witty, or matter-of-fact, these plain-spoken accounts will move and educate any reader, gay or not, from villages, small towns or big cities.There's this subtle tone of casual, rough-hewn quality of the writing that I like; creates an ambience that is often powerful and poignant, conveying the sadness of isolation and the strength of self-reliance.Emotionally, the book draws me in. This is the main strength of the book. The tone of the narrative is another plus.I'm not sure if you've read The Best Little Boy in the World and The Best Little Boy in the World Grows Up, but your story is betterNevertheless, your story is brazenly honest and positively challenging to read. In terms of rating, I would give it 4 out of 5 stars

Michelle Paulse, Cape Town, South AfricaWhat an honest book. I laughed and cried. You put your whole heart and soul into the story, giving every reader a bit of yourself. Thank you for sharing your pain, sorrow and innermost feelings.Candice Elliot, Johannesburg, South AfricaI read the book twice. Every time I feel sorry for myself, I think of the bold proud happy man you have become, when in all honesty you could have given up for so many reasons. Thank you for reminding me how important it is to keep things in perspective.Hilda Snyman, Brakpan, South AfricaThe book made me sad and I could not put it down. I wish I could hug you and to think of all the years we have known each other, you kept your pain a secret. Your book really needs to be read by many who might be struggling with similar issues.Dr Lesley Anne Foster, South Africa,Your story is very riveting and hard to read. You are extremely brave and courageous. Your story is exceptionally powerful because you explain so clearly how an abuse victim becomes submissive and compliant. It leaves me wanting to but too scared to delve into my own history. I did not go through anything like you did and I only remember two incidents in my life. I was around 4 and I think 12, but the impact remains. The extreme degradation and violence that hits you, is like a recurring tsunami. I am in awe of how you overcame that and managed to turn your life around. That you were able to write about so many aspects of your life is remarkable. Your story is also an amazing account of apartheid and its impact on people, on families and on our society. Truly powerful.Georgie, you have given me work to do with myself. What really gets to me about your book is how you recount the inner turmoil you faced, identifying the violence and abuse. Your layers of pain and fear grew as scar tissue in your mind, body and heart. You show how you’re the little had to develop strategies and coping mechanisms to survive. You explain things most victim or survivors cannot; the impact of their experiences to themselves and others. I think that your book should be a set work for people who work with survivors. I would like to promote it as such.Devine Lottering, Johannesburg, South AfricaYou are a talent. Thanks for the amazing opportunity to read this in this lifetime. I know it's been harder than what you would ever say out loud to get to this point, that is why I wish the returns can be so much greater. You are royalty mixing with us and sharing space in a bus that should truly be your own. You are just awesome. I cannot start reading the book yet. I am too starstruck by the mention of my name in such a Bible of emotions. I thought by now the novelty would have worn off but by gosh I practically will go into active withdrawal should I get over it.You had me smiling and crying at the same time. This trip has been a lot like my own memory lane, with so much I could identify with and yet so many differences. The almost decade difference in our ages, the physical worlds apart. The fact that you were born a boy, yet I detested being born a girl for so many reasons. Throughout the journey it seemed almost impossible to match your person with the challenges of your journey. I guess one always looks for remnants or evidence of such hardships. Maybe a little bitterness, anger or arrogance. You have never fitted the profile of one from that side of life. I always thought you were from some royal place. (Not that we are not all somehow royalty)I guess it's the grace, the smile, confidence, sophistication and compassion that I met with in you which made me guilty of assuming happiness. I can only say Wow! Wow! Wow! The flow is easy, there is an ebb and flow, almost like the ocean while one is waiting for the waves. The most endearing is the absolute unadulterated truth and the unapologetic, pure yet simple and humble tone. The book brings knots and sometimes goose bumps for someone like me. This is how people can get dumped by others for little vicarious pleasures. Amazing. Powerful. And then, words fail.Thank you for the generous tour. The charity. The lessons. Thank you for the inspiration. Thank you for your crown. It is needed by you and so becoming.Reviewer unknown, South AfricaI spent the day reading your book and although you have written it in an almost nonchalant kind of way, it affected me profoundly. So many layers to your story. I applaud your bravado. Cannot wait for the next one.Jennifer Roberts, Durban, South AfricaMy friend, I finished the book. It made me laugh and tear up. It is just so you. I love it and my name is even in the book. Love it.Shakiera Williams. Johannesburg, South AfricaThis book has opened my eyes. Despite growing up in a coloured area, my sister and I led sheltered and protected life. It breaks my heart to read your novel, knowing everything you went through was so hectic and it saddens me that no one protected you at such a tender age. I am proud of you and your self-published book. Well done!Thomas Theron, Cape Town, South AfricaFirstly, thank you. I appreciated your book. It takes a lot of guts to write a book about your life. The reader learns that family, friends and society play a huge part in shaping an individual. Yet, you can’t change the hand of cards you’re dealt, but you are the only one that can play them - so you have a choice. There is so much more than a brain between our ears, and you are testament to that fact. An amazing strong and complex person, there are no words to describe it, except to bow one’s head and nod, a great presence passes by. Well done.Garry van der Berg, Cape Town, South AfricaI finished the book in a day. Fascinating and identifiable.Linda James, Durban, South AfricaI am fascinated by your book. You are so brave to tell your story. I am sorry for all that you have been through. Praise God that you are still standing.Larna Bismark MawaEnjoyable reading. The first thing that struck me was your command of the English language and the writing style. The chapters were at times repetitive, but in a good way as this reflects you are intent on relaying events as clearly as you can possibly remember, by delving into your childhood memories and flash backs, painful as they might be, which couldn’t have been easy considering the extreme emotions and events involved. Finding time to read or finish a novel is a luxury for me, after reading a few chapters at a time, it was easy to pick up the story without having to revise or try and figure out if I had missed something. When reading a book, if just by reading the story, want to and be able to visualise or imagine the scene and the events the writer is describing - then I’m hooked. You are truly brave to tell your story. Really looking forward to the next one and may I place an order for Part 2 now?Patricia Moses Williams, Johannesburg, South AfricaThis is a book that cannot be read lightly nor hurriedly, otherwise something will be missed. The minute I started reading I was hooked, savouring each word, making sure the tissues were nearby. Emotionally, I don't think it was an easy book to write. It's a very long time since I have read a book that has touched my emotions so deeply. I need to ask, when you were being hurt on so many levels, did you ever cry as if the tears came from deep within the soul? There are so many unanswered questions, but as you have said, the best is yet to come. I turned each page with abated breath, not knowing what to expect, and thank you for allowing me you’re your childhood journey.Vinthi Vinni Neufeld, Cape Town, South AfricaRead the book in a day and could not put it down. Very brave of you to write your story with so much honesty and details. I hope your book is successful, but most of all I hope writing it was therapeutic for you. Good luck and continue to be brave.Anneline Bacon ( Kriel ) Miss World 1974, MauritiusThank you for the opportunity to read your book. It was painful to read this brave and honest account of your suffering throughout your childhood. Your style of writing is informal yet engaging and you sketched a clear picture of the characters and their surroundings in the book. I wanted to know the little boy’s journey and could not put the book down. I wish you a great success with it. It was really an amazing read and I understood so much more about your difficulty to fit in. As I read, I really wondered but suspected that you would have had a heterosexual marriage if your experiences were different. I look forward to the follow up book because I want to know more.Connie Masoet, Cape Town, South AfricaHow are you doing dear Georgie? Had coffee with my ex-colleague who has read your book too. We were discussing the brutal honesty of the narrative. You are such an amazing person! You have literally risen from the ashes like a phoenix, as it were, and taken flight (against all odds) to the success you are now. Very proud of you!Bevan Shelton, Johannesburg, South AfricaThis is very proud moment for East London, South Africa. Georgie Calverley wrote A Coloured in Full Flight, to share his, and pretty much our story, with the world. This book will inspire many other Georgie’s out there. Look in the mirror as you walk through the pages of his book. In many ways, Georgie’s story is OUR STORY. In one way or the other, you left your mark in many an East Londoner’s. Some accepted what was dished out, other chose not to succumb, and achieved.Melanie Holtman, Cape Town, South AfricaFinally!! Better late than never. We are reading very slowly. So far, a very interesting read. I am reminded once again how fortunate I was growing up and how we should always appreciative of what we have, no matter how little we might think it is.Bronwyn Nel, Durban, South AfricaI am waiting for Book 2. Wow!! You are such a strong young man and brave enough to share your childhood so explicitly. The little quiet boy from the barracks is so amazingly talented. Your careful expression of personal encounters affords one the inexplicable journey of sharing your every experience. I clearly did not expect you to be so WOW.Franklin Barendse, Durban, South AfricaDone and dusted in one day. I normally read a book over a few days, but I could not put this one down. What a great book and eye-opener. So, if I neglected anyone on social media today, blame Georgie, Georgie and David Calverley.Shahida Nash-Joubert, Kingwilliams Town, South AfricaWell done George. Heart wrenching stuff and so sad that we knew so little as we got in with our lives. It must have been difficult to write. So inspiring and so very proud of you.Pamela Leyds, AustraliaA Coloured in Full Flight is one of the most heart wrenching books I have ever read. The abject poverty, the innocence of the little boy, and the emotional isolation from mum, dad, brother and sister broke my heart. Yet, one gets the sense of resilience and hope. His success at school, despite the odds, shows his strength, even he did not know he had. A truly fantastic read.Jason Swartz, Warwick, United KingdomExcellent. Proof read some of the chapters before the release and knew this will be an awesome book. Well done Georgie.Brett Pierce, Isle of Man, United KingdomLoving this book, though far from done reading. Some classic stuff. My Dad – the other boy from the barracks – will have to read this book.Gerald Bedeker, Cape Town, South AfricaAn eye-opener of a read. You are so brave to share your story so honestly. Georgie grew up in a shack and the things he endured read like a movie script, but it all happened. We met 24 years ago, and I glimpsed a tiny fraction of his traumatic childhood experiences from the snippets he chose to share. Reading the book has given me more respect for him, yet also made me very sad, shedding many tears for the boy from the barracks. Georgie is such a giving and kind person, it baffles how he has managed to remain that way after everything he went through. As a privileged South African, it is a daily challenge to try and be that kind and caring. Through perseverance and sheer determination, Georgie overcame impossible odds to arrive where he is today, working as a recovery nurse in the UK.Do yourself a favour, come find out how the other half live, it is going to be inspirational.Lenise Llewellyn, NorwayDo you realise how touching, sad and inspiring your story is? My heart is so sore. I loved your book and cannot wait for the next one. What am I going to do now? I had to pace myself reading but it was hard to put down. Thank you again and my name is in a book! Wow! I almost cried, well more like I almost cried again. You deserve only the best and I hope we meet up to celebrate. You deserve a personal cheer, handshake and a warm hug. I must have your autograph.Jacqueline Voget, Cape Town, South AfricaThis book is awesome and so different from my childhood. It was very painful to read, knowing who you are. I am more concerned about the fact that you were abused from such a young age.Anthony Noble, George, South AfricaI got the book and I am impressed. I cannot put it down. You write well and have a gift with words. All those times you visited my home and never said a word, it hurts reading what you went through. You were always my friend and I have ben praying more for you, with better insight, now that I know your story. You never show an ounce of pain. At times I know you cried, even though you tried to hide them. I have a huge respect for you and the road you have travelled. I firmly believe you are destined for greatness. Where would I start to describe the how I feel about the ordeal set out in your book? May you be blessed and remember I am always praying for you.Aldrin Bosch, Cape Town, South AfricaJust finished reading A Coloured in Full Flight by Georgie Calverley. What a hectic and at the same time an enthralling read. I want to commend the author for having the courage to share his personal journey and by all accounts seem to have risen above adversity. I also cannot help but share your thoughts on what different pathways many of our classmates and sports persons would have followed if not for our country’s past and possibly a different mental resolve. Please support David aka Georgie aka George by getting your hands in a copy of his book. Looking forward to the next instalment but please let us not wait another 13 years. Regards and best wishes.Mason Mackay, East London, South AfricaI love it! You write beautifully and thank you for sharing. Pefferville Primary School library is proud to introduce this book to it’s reading shelves. A must read for all my colleagues. Thanks Georgie.Lenore Jennifer Bonhomme, Pietermaritzburg, South AfricaYour book is engaging and emotionally gripping, based on the chapters you sent. It took me on a journey of humility and deeper appreciation of my childhood. What will happen in the next chapters and how will it end? It is a definite must read, and I felt compelled to jump into the story to rescue the victim and punish the villains. Bless you!Diana Serbon-Eksteen, Middelburg, South AfricaGeorgie, your book is amazing. You were so brave, that little boy broke my heart.Edith Wynne-Trollip, Caledon, Cape TownI simply love it. Finally, someone has written a book that I cannot put down. I love the way it is written, a simple and honest account of our childhood years. It was difficult to put the book down since I could identify with some of the characters and story lines. You describe everything to nicely, a wonderful and funny trip down memory lane. I am so sorry for what you had to endure at such a tender age. You are brave to share your story and I am so happy to have met you and thank you for being my friend. When you were meant to be nurtured, you were tormented instead, which is so very sad. Seeing my name in the book was a big surprise. You are so much more than an amazing human being. There is a reason why things happen, perhaps to make it easier for those to follow in our footsteps.Cheryl Rietmuller, Johannesburg, South AfricaThere is so much pain and brokenness reflected in your book. I cannot even imaging what you have suffered, yet you came up resilient and strong, albeit suppressing all the sadness. Our strength is in our weaknesses. You are loved.Janel Freeks-Nicholas, East London, South AfricaWhat an honour! You are such an inspiring writer. And the book is captivating from start to finish. An excellent read and well written. Sad and yet so inspiring. Cannot wait for the next one. Well done!Monica Hemmero, Pietermaritzburg, South AfricaI finished reading the book. What a journey. It was really touching my friend. Thank you for sharingValencia Sheik, East London, South AfricaPlease do yourself a favour and get a copy of A Coloured in Full Flight by Georgie Calverley. One of our own, not just South African, but also an East London boy. A must read whether you an avid reader or not!Helen Hayes, Cape Town, South AfricaWow, this is so good on so many levels. In some way, like Forrest Gump, recording our history in South Africa, while painting a vivid picture of poverty as a direct consequence of apartheid. All this set against a backdrop of a sensitive soul making his way in life under extremely difficult circumstances. Really good and I am sad for the poverty and harm caused by our history, but also know it has made you resilient and a writer! This is an important story which must be told.Gerhard Grimett, Salisbury, United KingdomThe book is even better than I remember. So proud of you.Lizette Pitt du Plooy, East London, South Africa.Thank you for a brilliant book. A good read and money well spent. Looking forward to the next one.Rholene Llewellyn, East London, South AfricaI really admire your strength. At first, I was sad, then angry and happy that God gave you the strength through it all.Eleanor Johnson, Swords, DublinYou are one brave Queen. I am enjoying the read with some tears, laughter and because I know you. Respect and more respect. To those who have not purchased the book, you are missing out on a mind-blowing read.Ann Van Dyk, East London, South AfricaWhat an awesome and emotional read. I could not put it down. So proud of you and your courage to share this extremely painful journey, but you have risen, conquered and live to tell it all. I cannot wait for the next book.Catherine Arthur, United KingdomJust finished your book!! Wow, what a journey you have had and really loved reading it. I imagine it was not easy to write. I will be continuing your journey in print. Feel proud to know you and what you have achieved. Lots of love!!
