Book Details

"El joven de Infancia creció en el norte desarrollado de Ciudad del Cabo, atormentado por la culpa y el miedo. Con un padre por quien no sentía ningún respeto y una madre a quien adoraba y deseaba a la vez, llevaba una doble vida; en la escuela era un estudiante modelo, brillante y bien educado mientras en casa era un pequeño déspota, siempre acongojado por la posibilidad de perder el amor de su madre. Sus primeros encuentros con la literatura, el despertar de la sexualidad y una creciente forma de conciencia del fenómeno del apartheid lo llevaron a plantarse cuestiones espinosas y desconcertantes, y sólo en su amor por los veld ("las granjas son lugares de libertad, de vida") logró encontrar un sentimiento arraigado."

English Translation: The young person of Childhood grew in the developed north of City of the Cabo, tormented by the fault and the fear. With a father by whom any respect did not feel and a mother to that adored and wished simultaneously, he took one double life; in the school she was a student model, well educated brilliant and while in house he was small tyrant, always distressed by the possibility of losing the love of his mother. His first encounter with Literature, waking up of the sexuality and an increasing form of conscience of the phenomenon of the apartheid took it to stand thorny and amazing questions, and only in his love by veld (" the farms are freedom places, of life ") it managed to find a feeling rooted.
