Ravan 1981.. Owners signature ffep. G-VG condition.. 219pp paperback. Lesotho, once 'the granary of the Free State and part of the Cape Colony', eventually became an impoverished labour reserve.

Warm gift inscription from author to "Sandra". This work investigates South African historical novels as foundational narratives that mediate between history and story in order to conjure up the myth of the modern nation. By exploring the rhetoric of plot patterns and the semantics of recurrent motifs, the book discusses the ways in which texts produce a literary discourse about the past which aims at forming or consolidating a national consciousness. Author was a researcher in the Department of English and German Languages and Literatures at the University of Padova.
