Kings Of The Water by Mark Behr
* A beautifully written story which brings into focus the personal - a man's reconciliation with his father - and the big-picture-political: how South Africa comes to terms with its past, out now in paperback
Mark Behr meshes the personal and political with a novel about forgiveness and reconciliation. . this unsparing novel captures the internal stuggles of a man in crisis, and a post-apartheid world still circled by security fence s' Emma Hagestadt, Independent * ‘Superbly written, thoughtful and unflinching, this terrific novel explores the mentality of the Afrikaner male with wonderfully poetic use of the Afrikaans language’ *
