Stoffel Gieljam is a man with a grievance – the kind of grievance that sends him to the world of literature to air his views, with the aid of his nephew Neelsie regarding such fashion items as spelling. And Neelsie agrees to help because he owes his uncle a certain negligible sum. Stoffel has a bone to pick with the townspeople – heathenish Nats one and all – with their English pretensions and their ridiculous doctors that will send you to an early grave. And don’t even get him started about neighbours like Makpaatrie and the former Koos van der Byl (now Jiems Wénderbaail). But Stoffel is ready for them – just give him a table, an audience and some Dutch courage, and he’ll bend an ear or two ... ABOUT THE AUTHOR C.J. Langenhoven is one South Africa’s most beloved writers. His works, which include Sonde met die bure, Herrie op die ou tremspoor andDoppers en Filistyne, are part of our national heritage and well known to several generations of readers.
