Om na ’n nuwe dorp en ’n nuwe skool te trek is nooit maklik nie, maar
vir die skaam Nea is dit nog moeiliker.
My father, the monster of the Springs house of horrors “I kneel on the foot piece next to the bed and lower my head. A piercing, burning pain engulfs my entire face. Dad has kicked me. Blood is gushing from my nose. Then I feel cold water being poured all over my body. Electrical wires shock me, I can’t see through the blood. God, help me.” (Translated) Landi is the eldest of five children who were rescued from the so-called Springs house of horror. She is now 21 years old and tells her astonishing story for the very first time. In May 2014, police raided the house where a sadistic father had imprisoned, abused and tortured his wife and five children in a rat-infested den of sleaze. In chilling detail, Landi recalls how their father assaulted them by tasering them, shooting them with a gas pistol and burning them with a blowtorch, how he researched torture methods and nearly drowned them in a bathtub. She relates her memories to Susan Cilliers, an experienced journalist, who documents it with compassion, skilfully combining it with facts that emanated from the police investigation and court case. House of Horrors is the shocking tale of a father who took everything from his family in the cruellest possible way, but it is also a story of hope about a brave young girl who eventually finds happiness and healing.
Die mistigheid is klam en koel en dwarrel in vlae teen haar vel. Sy sak weg daarin. Los daarin op. Die mis rol nog digter teen haar aan, begin haar versmoor. Sy asem die digte klamheid hortend in. Nou is dit ook binne-in haar. Sy stoei vir asem ... Die droomwip moes haar drome verklaar, maar sy weet steeds nie wat hulle inhou nie. Die runesteen moet haar beskerm, maar die eerste aand op die plaas in die Maluti's is daar ʼn moord. Die antieke manuskrip kan dalk haar toekoms verseker ... as sy oorleef.
Suzie is mal oor hare. Nog voordat sy kon praat, kon sy al 'n poniestert maak. Wanneer sy eendag groot is, wil sy 'n haarkapper word. Sy hou van haar pa se netjiese kuif. Sy hou daarvan om haar ma se lang hare te kam. Sy hou van haar boetie se borselkop. Sy hou van haar ouma se grys krulletjies... Maar Suzie se oupa het glad nie hare nie. Sy kop is kaal soos 'n eier. Daarom besluit Suzie om 'n plan te maak...

Die Here, Pappa se Hemelse Vader, het saam met Pappa verdwyn. In hierdie tent vol mense is sy stokalleen. “Ek is net maar hier, dink Mentje. Net maar nog ’n mond wat moet kos kry, nog ’n lyf wat gewas moet word, nog ’n asem in die hut. Nog ’n kind.” Die Tweede Wêreldoorlog in al sy hebsug en barbaarsheid breek uit toe Mentje de Vries, ’n Nederlandse oorlogswesie, tien jaar oud is. Sy beland saam met Joodse vlugtelinge in ’n geheime kamp in die Nederlandse woude. Toe die situasie te gevaarlik raak omdat die Duitsers die kamp enige dag gaan ontdek, moet sy vlug na familie in Arnhem, maar daar is sy ook nie welkom nie. Sy moet veg om oorlewing tydens die Slag van Arnhem en gepaardgaande Honger Winter van 1944 - 1945. Byna aan die ander kant van die wêreld, in Suid-Afrika, sluit Tinus van Jaarsveld as ’n valskermsoldaat by die Britse Leër aan. Dit is nie soseer trou aan die Britse Ryk wat hom daartoe dryf nie, maar die vergoeding wat hy daarvoor gaan kry, want hy wil die Van Jaarsvelds se familieplaas terugkoop. Toe hy by Arnhem gewond word, stel Mentje haar lewe in gevaar om hom te red. Ná die oorlog laat kom Tinus haar na Suid-Afrika en sy moet aanpas by nuwe omstandighede, midde-in drie geslagte van die verskeurde Van Jaarsvelds. Verlies en versoening, mensliewendheid en vergifnis is die kamerade wat Mentje en Tinus deur beproewende tye dra. Irma Joubert is ’n geliefde naam in historiese fiksie. Al haar vorige romans was topverkopers en met Mentje, kind van Pas-Opkamp sit sy hierdie tradisie voort.

Hierdie boek is ’n hersiene weergawe van Emma is g’n engel nie (2011). Emma dra verskriklike verwyte in haar binneste rond. Sy het iets vreesliks gedoen en dit kou aan haar. Sy voel al klaar moeilik om lief te hê met haar mollige lyf en haar vaal gelaatstrekke. Miskien as sy ook funky en blond en pret kon wees sou sy liefde kon vind. Sy wil ook weet hoe dit voel om iemand se arms styf om jou te voel … iemand soos Burger Botha. Dis ’n eensame pad wat sy stap en die laaste mense by wie sy kan troos soek is haar ma en suster. Die Bybelversies van haar kindertyd weergalm in haar kop en herinner haar dat sy eintlik maar ’n closet Christen is. Sy weet wat sy verkeerd gedoen het, wat sy aangevang het, maar hoe gaan sy dit regmaak? Waar begin sy om na vergifnis te soek? As ’n mens nie van jouself hou nie is dit moeilik om te glo dat iemand anders van jou sal kan hou. En as Emma nie haarself kan vergewe, of vir haarself lief kan wees nie, wie sal ooit kan? Sy voel allesbehalwe soos ’n engel, eintlik meer soos ’n duiwel, om die waarheid te sê. Haar skuld is te swaar om alleen te dra. Emma het gehoor dat bevryding jou vlerke gee, en daar is soveel engel-vroue rondom haar met vlerke. Dalk kan hulle haar help om haar eie vlerke te kry sodat sy uiteindelik vry en haarself kan wees.

In Mr Entertainment, we hear the voices of the people who knew Taliep Petersen best: his family, friends and collaborators. Their stories bring to life the spaces he inhabited, vividly recounting scenes from his childhood, his rise to fame from the Cape Coon Carnival stage to the West End, his artistic collaborations, most notably with David Kramer, his family life, and his tragic death and its aftermath. In this pioneering biography of one of Cape Town’s most beloved entertainers, we encounter Petersen as a complex and many-sided personality whose influence continues to reverberate in national life. Mr Entertainment evokes not just Taliep’s life, but also the music and entertainment worlds of the 1950s to 2000s and their diverse and irrepressible cultural traditions. Along the way, it brings us to the front row of South Africa’s difficult history. Drawing on the musician’s personal archive and on more than fifty interviews conducted over a decade, Paula Fourie has pieced together a fascinating portrait of Taliep Petersen, acutely observed and poignantly captured.

belangriker dinge op die spel: hulle lewens. Kan Heinrich en Conrad
hulle verskille oorkom en saam die regte keuses maak om weer by die
huis te kom?
