A hundred years ago, a small settlement sprang up in theNorthern
Cape. A rich diversity of people moved in, as the children were
born, Vatmaar became a village. A. H. M. Scholtz tells of Oom Chai,
who in turn tells of a Vuurmaak, who in turn introduces someone
else. Thus a chain of stories is created interlinking the fates of
unforgettable characters like Lance-Corporal George Lewis and his
Tswana wife, Rush, Sis Bet, Old Chetty, Hendruk, January, Tant
Vonnie and her daughters as they recount tales of the Anglo-Boer
War, the diamond diggings, court cases and stokvels: the tricksters
and the tricked, marriages and funerals, love and betrayal. A Place
Called Vatmaar is a panoramic novel: compelling, wise and humane.
