A Rock is a derogatory term for people of Afrikaans descent, while
a Kraut is an offensive name for a German. Here, however, the terms
are used lovingly and self-deprecatingly, as South African born
author Anli Serfontein humorously narrates the story of her journey
from urban Johannesburg to small-town Trier in Germany. She takes
the reader on a journey through everyday life, as she struggles to
deal with convoluted red-tape, arrogant teachers, extreme tidiness
and the inability of 80 million people to queue. She battles to
keep up with the locals and their town, wine and harvest festivals.
Her tale is spiced with accounts of her travels as a television
researcher, meeting Dutch politician Pim Fortuyn in Rotterdam days
before his murder or speaking with the last surviving officer to be
with Hitler in the Berlin bunker during the last days of the war.
