The !Gias of the Nama

Autor Pieter Gouws
en Limba Engleză Paperback
GODFORSAKEN An outcast who lost everything. From France, Holland, the picturesque Cape to Namaqualand - peace is nowhere to be found for the Huguenot, Francois du Toit. Delivered to the mercy of the heathen Late Stone Age Namas, he is caught between an inner struggle with God, the Namas' barbarous lifestyle and their moon god, Tsui'goab. Will he ever find peace? NOT IF IT DEPENDS ON HIS NEMESIS Ben Goossen, a rude, scruffy character, hates Francois. Ben sold his soul to Satan and doesn't know how to get it back - until... The gais of the Nama is set against the background of the French Huguenots migration to the Cape of Good Hope and Simon van der Stel's copper expedition in 1685 to Namaqualand, the austere desert that transforms into a floral extravaganza during spring. The South African author takes the reader 350 years back to the ancient healing methods, trance dances, social structure, religion and food gathering of the biggest Khoi-Khoi group, the Namas of Namaqualand. "Die Nama-kultuur is nog nie soos hier uitgebeeld nie (Never before, the Nama-culture was described like this)." Madri Victor - Writer, Reviewer. Look out for the sequels in this series to follow in 2016: The Valley of Hinnom - 2nd in the Nama-trilogy Bittersweet Revenge - 3rd in the Nama-trilogy Haia the Khoi Boy - 1st in the Haia-trilogy
