Hierdie uitgebreide uitgawe: • Wys hoe sekere name die omstandighede van party mense by geboorte, die dag, geboorterang orde, ouers se reaksie en selfs die voorkoms of gewenste karakereienskappe reflekteer • Sien ons dat daar deesdae ’n sterk neiging is om vanne as voorname te gebruik • Wys dat ’n naam ook verband verband kan hou met ’n beroep, kleur, dier of voël; ’n plant, deug, taak of opdrag • Is name van beroemde persone ingesluit, sowel as die vroulike vorm van manlike name • Is daar ’n gedeelte aan die einde van die boek wat die Christelike perspektief op die belangrikheid van name ondersoek. Die A tot Z van name (hersiene en uitgebreide uitgawe) is ’n oorkoepelende, gesaghebbende gids met maklike toegang tot die oorsprong en betekenis van die meeste Suid-Afrikaanse name en die spesiale belofte wat elke naam inhou

The Newspaper of Claremont Street
Weekly, as old cleaning lady known as 'the newspaper', dreams of escape from the parasitic demands of the past and the present.
Voss
Voss describes an epic journey, both physical and spiritual. The eponymous hero, Johann Voss, is based on Ludwig Leichhardt, the nineteenth-century German explorer and naturalist who had already conducted several major expeditions into the Australian outback before making an ambitious attempt to cross the entire continent from east to west in 1848.

But Voss is also a love story, for the explorer has become inextricably bound up with Laura Trevellyn, whose inner life, like his own, is at odds with the world. In language poetic and passionate, yet at the same time grounded by shrewd, often comic, social observations and naturalistic portrayals of a wide variety of characters - farmers, convicts, aborigines, the colonial middle class and their servants.

His is the tough-talking, law-dodging world of the 1880s, where swagmen and bullockies slept under the stars with 'grandeur, peace and purity above; squalor, worry and profanity below'. These inspired yarns, 'fatally governed by an inveterate truthfulness', are woven into one of the greatest books of...
