About this listen
’n Nuwe lewe wag op hom.
In 1939 bars die oorlogbom in Europa. Drie miljoen kinders word uit London ontruim na veiliger gebiede. Een van hulle is die sesjarige Charles Smith, op pad na ’n onbekende tante van sy pa in ’n klein dorpie in Skotland. By aunty Grace wag ’n nuwe lewe op hom. Aan die anderkant van Europa ruk die Duitse Sesde Leër op teen Rusland. Tussen die manskappe is die vurige majoor Oswald von Stein, Hildegard se stiefseun. Voor hulle wag die Russiese winter, Stalingrad en die krygsgevangenekampe van Siberië. 90 000 word gevange geneem, net sesduisend oorleef. Charles en Oswald beleef teenoorgestelde kante van die oorlog. Beide bevind hulself egter op pad na ’n plaas in Afrika waar hul paaie sal kruis met dié van Seretse Khama en Mentje de Vries.
Please note: This title is in Afrikaans.

In die wilde nagte of bedags as die son bloed uit ’n klip wil trek en ’n mens se gedagtes koorsig maal - dan loop waarheid en verdigsel, geskiedenis en toekoms, lewe en dood deurmekaar op Toorberg, erfgrond van die Moolmans. Hiermee moet die magistraat rekening hou wanneer hy die dood kom ondersoek van klein Noag, ’n kind van die weemoed, wat nie heeltemal van dié aarde was nie.

Teen die einde van die negentiende eeu kom 'n middeljarige besoeker uit Europa in die binneland van Suid-Afrika aan. Versluis is 'n afsydige, aristokratiese Nederlander wat na Bloemfontein kom om van tering te herstel. Hy verken die vreemde land en doen algaande kennis en begrip op van dít wat tot dusver vir hom vreemd was. Dit word ook, uiteindelik, 'n voorbereiding op die onafwendbare einde van die reis: die dood.

Lira kan feitlik enige gebreekte ding mooi of bruikbaar maak, maar met liefdesverhoudings vaar sy minder goed. Veral waar daar kinders betrokke is. Sy het geen benul hoe om ʼn ma te wees nie. Tog het sy geglo sy sal iets kan uitwerk wat waarde toevoeg tot Frank en Debbie se lewe. Dit is egter die een upcycling-projek waarin sy jammerlik misluk het. Sy beland op Vywerbaai waar sy ʼn winkeltjie vir haar upcycle-produkte wil oopmaak. Die finansiële risiko's wat sy neem is enorm en teenspoed bly nie uit nie, maar sy bly vasberade - upcycle gaan sy haar lewe upcycle.

Kassie Kasselman is kriewelrig. Sy lewe lank poeliesman gewees, maar wragtag, wat hy nóú alles in die media oor sy geliefde SAPD lees. En met sy eie oë sién ook, in kolonel Daniels se kantoor by die Nuweland-stasie. Kassie het juis ’n ander werksaanbod gehad.... En dan moet dit natuurlik só kom dat hy in die middel van sy loopbaankrisis teen die grieseligste moordenaar nóg te staan kom. Die Pion se moordloopbaan het tentakels wat terugstrek na die Apartheidsera, met moderner euwels soos die Afrika-handel in vervalste medikasie wat ook Kassie se aandag verg.

Story
Die klassieke topverkoper nou weer beskikbaar! Simon van Cirene word gelas om Jesus se kruis te dra, op pad na Golgota. Simon, die man wat nie glo nie. Maar hoe kan ’n mens onveranderd gelaat word deur ’n ontmoeting met Christus? Hierdie is die verhaal van Christus se aanslag op ’n heidense wêreld. Dit is ’n beeld van wroeging en botsing en van haat en liefde, van ongeloof teenoor geloof. Maar veral is dit die verhaal van verlossing: die oorwinning van die gees oor die aardse.

Fees van die ongenooides is sekerlik die uitnemendste toonbeeld van P.G. du Plessis se vertelkuns. Sy roman is weliswaar een van die heel grootste werke oor die Boereoorlog, maar dit is ook ‘n werk wat in ‘n hedendaagse idioom vrae vra oor hoe ons onthou, wat ons onthou en wat die implikasies is van vergeet.

Hy pas dit veral toe in sy werk as vryskut-lyfwag by Body Armour, waar hy laag af is op die pryslys, want hy’s die een met die kriminele rekord, die gebrekkige sosiale vaardighede en die baie kort humeur. Wanneer die mooi, ryk Emma le Roux hom huur en begin vertel van onwaarskynlike bedreigings en ’n broer wat sy vas glo ná twintig jaar soos ’n Lasarus uit die dood uit opgestaan het, stof hy ook ’n ander ou Wet af: Moenie klein vroue vertrou nie.

Kamphoer is die ware verhaal van ’n vrou wat gedurende die Anglo-Boereoorlog wreedaardig verkrag en vir die aasvoëls gegooi is. Met die hulp van ’n reeks weldoeners ontsnap sy aan die kloue van die dood en wy sy uiteindelik haar lewe aan die genesing van presies die soort trauma waaraan sy onderworpe was. En in die proses word sy teruggestamp in ’n bomkrater wat sy geglo het lank reeds toegegroei het en veilig bedek was. In Kamphoer word die weerbarstigheid van die menslike gees opgeweeg teen die ewe blywende invloed van trauma.

Waarom is die toneel om haar liggaam so sorgvuldig, amper kunstig, gerangskik? En hoekom is haar rekenaar se geheue voor die tyd so sorgvuldig skoongevee?

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Little do they know that colony will become permanent–and the last stand of the human race. Because, without warning, every single person left on Earth simply...vanishes. Now, a thousand years later, the resources needed to sustain life are running out, and the very existence of the Mars colony is threatened. Humankind has only one option–to return to its home planet.

Story
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Story
In the not-too-distant future, a 21-member crew launches from Earth. Their mission: to establish a temporary colony on Mars. Little do they know that colony will become permanent–and the last stand of the human race. Because, without warning, every single person left on Earth simply...vanishes. Now, a thousand years later, the resources needed to sustain life are running out, and the very existence of the Mars colony is threatened. Humankind has only one option–to return to its home planet.

Great research done!
Truly enjoyable story, with historic bits. The German and Tswana words great to hear, even thow not well pronounced, still had an emotional effect on the reader!

Goeie storielyn
Aangenaam verras. Verteller se vroulike rolle was minder oortuigend en het soms 'n robot stemtoon gehad.

Excellent story
Irma Joubert brilliantly told the 2 stories of the 2 men on opposite sides of World War II. The reader assumes that their paths would cross. At times this seems almost impossible, yet the 2 stories evolve quite realistically and believably to end on a farm in Africa. Excellently told, set in respective milieu and events that were thoroughly researched and expertly woven into the book. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The narration is quite good, although a little more could have been made of the various European accents.

Pragtig
My gunsteling Afrikaanse skrywer. Hoe goed om na een van Irma Joubert se boeke in Afrikaans op Audible te luister. Ek kon nie ophou luister nie.

Pragtige storie met 'n pragtige stem
Lekker om te luister terwyl jy jouself kan inleef. Die verteller doen 'n uitstekende werk. Dit sal lekker wees om na die ander boeke in die reeks deur dieselfde verteller te luister.
Wel gedaan!!

So so mooi!
Dankie Irma en Anton. I have not read or listened to a book in my mother tongue for over 20 years. This book pulled at so many of my heart strings and it was absolutely delightful to listen to.
