Description

Side with the English? Never! The sibling rivalry between brothers Pierre and Jan Rousseau escalates when the Smuts Government declares war on Nazi Germany.

Pierre, the charming extrovert, chooses the more glamorous option, heading Up North with the Air Force but his equally good-looking rightwing brother Jan joins the militant wing of the Ossewa Brandwag. The story tracks their adventures during the conflict, reaching a climax when Pierre survives a spell on the loose in Italy and returns home.

It portrays the deep division World War II created between groups and individuals in South Africa and the life-changing impact it had on many lives. Youll be fascinated as you follow the brothers hairy and often romantic adventures. I enjoyed being reminded of the complex nature of war and especially the disastrous consequences of limited access to information had for the world at large.

Its hard to imagine in this day and age of tweeting and instant messaging that there were times when people sincerely didnt know the truth before it was too late. (Wir haben nicht gewusst!)Amelia de Vaal, editor and literary translator
