Die Judasbok deur Dalene Matthee


Die Judasbok deur Dalene MattheeDie Judasbok
Author: Dalene Matthee
Format: Hardcover



Description:
Die Judasbok is Dalene Matthee se eerste boek. Hiermee het sy in 1982 haar talent triomfantlik aangekondig; en dié bundel verhale het haar ná aan haar hart gelê, want vyf-en-twintig jaar se gevoelens en ervarings, bepeinsing en besinning lê hierin opgesluit.

"As ek uit die skool is, gaan ek ... boeke skryf," sê een van haar karakters in Die Judasbok. "En ek sal bekend word."

Met hierdie bundel verhale en haar romans Kringe in 'n bos, Fiela se kind, Moerbeibos en Toorbos het Dalene Matthee in 'n ommesientjie méér as bekend geword - sy was een van die gewildste skrywers in Afrikaans.
