Eendjie verlaat die nes op soek na avontuur . . . en verdwaal! Met die hulp van sy vriend, Padda, vind hy uit dat hy alles het wat nodig is om sy pad terug nes toe te vind - pootjies wat kan skop, veertjies wat hom warm hou wanneer hy swem en ‘n piepstemmetjie om Mamma Eend mee te roep.

Twee uiteenlopende nagdiere leer mekaar ken en besluit om saam 'n hotel
oop te maak. Erdvark is impulsief en vol planne, heeltemal anders as
Ietermagô, wat eers alles wil oorweeg en die rustigheid vanself is!
Hierdie storie vol humor en avontuur ondersoek die elemente wat ware
vriendskap laat ontstaan. Uiteindelik is dit die vreemde klein
geskenkies wat die "hotelgaste" agterlaat wat Erdvark en Ietermagô laat
besef wat vriendskap werklik beteken. In Afrikaans vertaal deur Elsa
Silke.
At Close of Day is the author's thoughts and meditations about
old-age, ageing and the end of a life, together with memories of a
general nature to give a stirring depiction of the author’s life of
almost eighty years. The series of autobiographical books that
started with ’n Duitser aan die Kaap, Merksteen and Die laaste
Afrikaanse boek is concluded with this work. It is a highly
personal book about old-age, the process of writing and
self-determination with commentary about ageing and being old in a
modern society, and was updated for the last time on 26 April 2017,
a few days before his death. He gives practical hints and
information about the possible and probable end of his life. The
element of farewell and acceptance are obvious throughout the text.
He realises that old age becomes the main theme of his thoughts and
his daily life. The references and quotations are poignant and
speak of someone who made his reading world his living word. In the
end he explains his liberating decision about his planned suicide.
