Viac o knihe

This collection contains the best stories and humor of Bosman. "Sterlig op die veld" includes 23 of Bosman's finest stories, featuring classic Oom Schalk tales such as "The Road to Mafeking," "The Rooinek," and "Makapan's Caves," as well as Voorkamer stories like "School Concert" and "Birth Certificate." In famous stories like "A Boer Rip from Winkel" and "An Old Transvaal Story," we hear the author's voice contemplating the art of storytelling with self-irony. "The Recognition Blues" features 29 pieces spanning Bosman's entire career, from schoolboy jokes to his final laugh. As Bosman himself noted, he was known for the humor present in all his work, which made him popular among his loyal readers. This collection includes well-known gems such as "In the Shadow of the White Whale," "A Bekkersdal Marathon," and "A Visit to Blikkiesdorp," showcasing his satirical irony, along with a number of essays that have not been previously collected in a volume, confirming him as one of South Africa's most affable commentators.
