Tandia

Courtenay, B. (1992). Tandia. Australia: Heinemann

For the last six weeks Dr Anne has been reading the Power of One and Tandia. One doesn't have to read both books but together they are awesome.  The world of the 50s in South Africa is portrayed in Tandia - the boers, the rooineks, the coloureds,  the mixed race, the various black tribes.  It is what they thought of themselves and each other - the good, the bad, the hate, the love, the rulers, the ruled, the laws of the land and the use of the law. Tandia, Peekay, Hymie, Gideon v Gelenhuis.

Together since the world began, the madman and the lover.

Small can beat big, you must remember only one thing, first with the head then with the heart. 

Does good overcome evil?  Does the head rule the heart? What is the future?

This is the first 10/10 Dr Anne has awarded.
