She was in a relationship with Andrew Friedman, Sonyai’s previous protégé and current Senior Clerk of the Webster.

I love reading memoirs. “Won Heart: Diary of a Twin” written by the author Vanessa Potgieter Elsden is the story of the author. Vanessa was born one of an identical twin. Her sister dominated in the younger years. Vanessa became submissive to her twin’s strong and demanding character. The barrier of disconnect between her sister and her widened.

As the story progresses, readers would get to know about the tragedy that happened with Vanessa. She still hopes for everyone to find peace. Even though she was in pain, she could see the pain of the person who damaged her for years.

Read this story and you would be amazed by the strength of the author. The language used in the book is easy to follow.
