Afrika se eeue oue magiesheid en hartstog vorm die agtergrond van die intiem verweefde komedie en tragedie in hierdie roman. Dit is gebaseer op die historiese figuur Kupido Kakkerlak (c. 1760 u c. 1825) se lewe. Maar die raaisel van 'n mens se lewe word ten beste met die verbeelding benader. Kupido is nie gebore nie, 'n arend het hom gebring. In daardie tyd het ook 'n bidsprinkaan verskyn: 'n teken van die gode. Wonderwerke het soos optelgoed op die aarde rondgele. Nadat Heitsi-Eibib in die veld aan Kupido verskyn het, raak hy as baasjagter bekend tot ver buite die grense van die boereplaas waar hy grootword. Hy is ook die drinker, leuenaar, minnaar en bakleier van die kontrei. Onder die sendeling dr. Van der Kemp se invloed word hy egter die eerste Khoi wat as sendeling aan die Kaap die Goeie Hoop georden is.

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.
