Die stoetmeester (Afrikaans, Paperback, 2nd ed): Etienne Van Heerden Die stoetmeester (Afrikaans, Paperback, 2nd ed)
Etienne Van Heerden
R425 Discovery Miles 4 250 Ships in 4 - 6 working days

God sou nooit so 'n spesie bedink nie," se Seamus Butler van sy kantelbokke, die genetiese frats wat sy vader toevallig geteel het op die Setlaar-familieplaas. Die bokke het 'n aangebore defek wat goud werd is: hulle slaan flou neer as hulle skrik. 'n Enkele kantelbok wei saam met 'n trop kleinvee en as 'n ongedierte toeslaan, word die bok prooi en die kudde ontkom. Hulle, die weemoedige bokke met die spottende geel oe, gee die Butlers rykdom en invloed in die Oos-Kaap – en dis belangrik in die tyd van die groot politieke ommekeer. Want die oopbars van 'n oliebron reg in die middel van die hawestad Port Cecil dryf die swart civic-organisasie se aandrang op 'n verenigde stadsraad op die spits. Aan die voorpunt van die swart aspirasies staan MaNdlovu Thandani, onvernietigbaar en groter as lewensgroot. Teenoor haar: Seamus Butler met sy donker; depressiewe buie wat in hom sleur soos die rivier wat in sewe deltabene deur die stad in die see uitmond. En rondom hulle, in twee werelde wat deur die geskiedenis op mekaar afgestuur word, is elkeen se familiekring wat dreig om mee te gee onder die druk van die tyd. Dis hier waar die verhaal van Die stoetmeester meesleurend deurloop, deur die lewens van mense, elkeen betrokke by, elkeen uitgelewer aan die boeiende oerwereld van die Oos-Kaap in 'n tyd waarin skoonheid en wreedheid, gewelddadigheid en hoop verstrengel raak. Die stoetmeester is, na die satiriese roman Casspirs en Campari's, veel meer verwant aan die sfeer van Toorberg, Etienne van Heerden se hoogs suksesvolle tweede roman. 'n Storie soos min, wat opstaan uit die weeige maar grootse landskap van die Kei.

Twee vroue (Afrikaans, Paperback): Elsa Joubert Twee vroue (Afrikaans, Paperback)

R346 Discovery Miles 3 460 Ships in 4 - 6 working days

In Pampas reis Elvira vroeg in die vorige eeu na Argentinie, waar sy in aanraking kom met vreemde mense en 'n vreemde landskap. Die ruimte van die vlakte wat haar alkante omring, die roerende glinstering van die skuinsgewaaide gras, vul haar oe, haar kop, haar hande, haar lyf. In afsondering, haar eensaamheid ver sterk deur 'n liefdelose huwelik, word sy gekonfronteer met die grense in haarself, kom sy te staan voor die beperkinge van haar menslikheid en worstel sy met die onherroeplikheid van haar keuse. In Klooster vertrek Helena saam met drie mans op 'n soektog na 'n verlore manuskrip. Maar tussen die bonkige mure van 'n massiewe vesting en teen die hange van 'n berg wat uitstyg bo die wye woestynlandskap, onderneem sy haar eie ontdekkingstog - 'n fisieke en spirituele reis, gevoer tot 'n evokatiewe hoogtepunt.

Bidsprinkaan (Afrikaans, Paperback): Andre P. Brink Bidsprinkaan (Afrikaans, Paperback)
Andre P. Brink
R559 Discovery Miles 5 590 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Afrika se eeue oue magiesheid en hartstog vorm die agtergrond van die intiem verweefde komedie en tragedie in hierdie roman. Dit is gebaseer op die historiese figuur Kupido Kakkerlak (c. 1760 – c. 1825) se lewe. Maar die raaisel van 'n mens se lewe word ten beste met die verbeelding benader. Kupido is nie gebore nie, 'n arend het hom gebring. In daardie tyd het ook 'n bidsprinkaan verskyn - 'n teken van die gode. Wonderwerke het soos optelgoed op die aarde rondgele. Nadat Heitsi-Eibib in die veld aan Kupido verskyn het, raak hy as baasjagter bekend tot ver buite die grense van die boereplaas waar hy grootword. Hy is ook die drinker, leuenaar, minnaar en bakleier van die kontrei. Onder die sendeling dr. Van der Kemp se invloed word hy egter die eerste Khoi wat as sendeling aan die Kaap die Goeie Hoop georden is.

Richard R. Day, Julian Bamford
R151 Discovery Miles 1 510 Ships in 4 - 6 working days

This book is a comprehensive examination of extensive reading. In this approach to the teaching and learning of second language reading, learners read large quantities of books and other materials that are well within their linguistic competence. In this text the case is made that extensive reading is an important addition to any second language reading program. Extensive reading not only provides essential practice in learning to read but also develops a positive attitude toward reading so often missed in second language reading classrooms. The authors provide a theoretical foundation for this approach by examining the cognitive and affective nature of reading. They also offer a wealth of practical suggestions for implementing extensive reading, including integrating it into the curriculum, establishing a library, selecting reading material, record-keeping evaluation, and a wide variety of classroom activities to supplement individualized silent reading.
