ONDER ’N BLOEDROOI HEMEL

ONDER ’N BLOEDROOI HEMEL

About

Annemarié van Niekerk se memoir oor liefde en geweld in Suid-Afrika is met ’n gesogte literêre prys in Nederland bekroon. Nicola Hanekom, wat as dramaturg al die Hertzogprys verower het, het dié aangrypende boek vir die Suidoosterfees-verhoog verwerk. Onder ’n bloedrooi hemel vertel die verhaal van moorde op ’n Oos-Kaapse plaas, en hoe dit Annemarié op ’n reis neem die verlede in. ’n Reis waarin sy bestek opneem van haar grootwordjare, ’n liefdesverhouding met Denzel, ’n swart kollega, en haar pa wat haar ten alle koste teen die wêreld wil beskerm – alles binne die hartverskeurende konteks van Suid-Afrika se bitter geskiedenis.

Annemarié van Niekerk’s memoir about love and violence in South Africa won a major literary prize in the Netherlands. Playwright Nicola Hanekom, awarded the coveted Hertzog Prize for drama, adapted the gripping book for Suidoosterfees. Onder ’n bloedrooi hemel tells the story of a double murder on an Eastern Cape farm, and how it takes Annemarié on an odyssey into her past. A journey in which she has to come to terms with her childhood, a love affair with Denzel, a black colleague, and her father who wants to shield her from the world at all cost – all within the heart-wrenching framework of South Africa’s grim history.
