Begeerte
Share
“Bill Scheiffer se taal is die taal van sy hande. Daarom het sy geweet hy praat toe hy die heel eerste keer sy hande hoog tussen haar dye inglip.”
In dié aanvangsinne vestig Eben Venter reeds die erotiek wat soos ’n leitmotief deur hierdie Karoo-roman loop. Dis die verhaal van Madelein en Bill, van haar byna onverstaanbare lojaliteit en vergewensgesindheid teenoor ’n ontroue, maar sjarmante eggenoot wat nie kan ontsnap aan sy onweerstaanbare drang na die polsende lewe en die sensualiteit van vroue nie.
Begeerte is ’n boeiende en menslike optekening van ’n vrou se geskiedenis, maar ook van die ingewikkelde familieverhoudings binne die politieke bestel van Suid-Afrika in die veertigerjare.

How we describe the condition of our books
We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)
New: Exactly as it says.
As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.
Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.
Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.
Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.
Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
