“I could have guessed that one day I’d hear something I shouldn’t have
on that party line. It was one thing listening to the gossip and the
small talk that buzzed along its wires all the time, but it was
something else to hear, on a hot Saturday morning before you started
high school, that your best friend’s mother, the woman you wished you
could somehow have married one day, was dead.”
Dangerous boyhood memories surface when a letter brings news of Karl’s
suicide.
Karl, Max’s enigmatic friend who taught him how to toughen up when he’d
first arrived in their small Lowveld town. Karl, whose beautiful mother
became the object of Max’s raging teenage obsession.
Her tragic death brought a brutal end to the two boys’ friendship. But
why exactly did Karl and his family leave town so soon thereafter?
As Max tries to make sense of what is transpiring, his complicity in
the ills of the past begins to gnaw at him.
Due South of Copenhagen is Mark Winkler’s masterful tale of the
friendships between men, small-town living during the height of South
Africa’s Border War, and about what it takes to put the past to rest.
