In the beautiful hills of the KwaZulu-Natal midlands, in the spring of 1999, a young white farmer was shot dead on the dirt road running from his father's farmhouse to his irrigation fields. The murder was the work of assassins: a single shot behind the ear, with no forensic evidence left at the scene. Jonny Steinberg travelled to the midlands to investigate. Local black workers said the farmer had it coming; the dead man's father said he and his neighbours were being pushed off the land by a political conspiracy.

The Thought Police, Doublethink, Newspeak, Big Brother – 1984 itself: these terms and concepts have moved from the world of fiction into our everyday lives. They are central to our thinking about freedom and its suppression; yet they were newly created by George Orwell in 1949 as he conjured his dystopian vision of a world where totalitarian power is absolute. In this novel, continuously popular since its first publication, readers can explore the dark and extraordinary world he brought so fully to life. The principal characters who lead us through that world are ordinary human beings like ourselves: Winston Smith and Julia, whose falling in love is also an act of rebellion against the Party. Opposing them are the massed powers of the state, which watches its citizens on all sides through technology now only too familiar to us. No-one is free from surveillance; the past is constantly altered, so that there is no truth except the most recent version; and Big Brother, both loved and feared, controls all. Even the simple act of keeping a diary – as Winston does – is punishable by death. In Winston’s battle to keep his freedom of thought, he has a powerful adversary in O’Brien, who uses fear and pain to enter his very thought processes. Does 2+2 = 4? Or is it 5? We find out in Room 101.Nineteen Eighty-Four was Orwell’s last novel; but the world he created is always with us, as successive generations of readers find within it a mirror for their own times and a warning for the future. Our edition also includes the following selection of Orwell's essays, column extracts and broadcasts: A Hanging; Spilling the Spanish Beans; Reviews of Jack London, The Iron Heel; H. G. Wells, When the Sleeper Awakes; Aldous Huxley, Brave New World; Ernest Bramah, The Secret of the League ; England Your England; Looking Back on the Spanish War; Arthur Koestler; The Prevention of Literature; Politics and the English Language; Why I Write; Politics Vs Literature; Sir Walter Raleigh; The Three Super-States of the Future; Persecution of Writers in USSR; Literature and Totalitarianism; Imaginary Interview: George Orwell and Jonathan Swift

Dear reader, There is nothing to be found in Lemony Snicket’s ‘A Series of Unfortunate Events’ but misery and despair. You still have time to choose another international best-selling series to read. But if you insist on discovering the unpleasant adventures of the Baudelaire orphans, then proceed with caution… Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire are intelligent children. They are charming, and resourceful, and have pleasant facial features. Unfortunately, they are exceptionally unlucky. In The Hostile Hospital the siblings face a suspicious shopkeeper, unnecessary surgery, heart-shaped balloons, and some very startling news about a fire. In the tradition of great storytellers, from Dickens to Dahl, comes an exquisitely dark comedy that is both literary and irreverent, hilarious and deftly crafted. Despite their wretched contents, ‘A Series of Unfortunate Events’ has sold 60 million copies worldwide and been made into a Hollywood film starring Jim Carrey. And in the future things are poised to get much worse, thanks to the forthcoming Netflix series starring Neil Patrick Harris. You have been warned. Are you unlucky enough to own all 13 adventures?

He was born in a small town where the inhabitants were suspicious and prone to riot. He grew up near the sea and currently lives beneath it. Until recently, he was living somewhere else.

Die vroulike hoofkarakter, Gretl, se ouma was ’n Jodin wat met ’n Duitser getroud is. Haar ma was dus half-Joods en haar pa patrioties Duits. Sy en haar suster is slegs 25% Joods, maar in Nazi-Duitsland is Jode in 1944 na Auschwitz gestuur – selfs in die derde en die vierde geslag. Teen daardie tyd weet die Jode van die doodskampe. Daarom laat die ma haar twee dogtertjies ontsnap deur ’n klein opening in die beestrok waarmee hulle vervoer word. So swerf die agtjarige Gretl en haar twaalfjarige suster deur die suide van Pole op pad na familie in Switserland. Die suster word ernstig siek en hulle kry onderdak by ’n bitter arm Poolse vrou met ’n swetterjoel kinders. Die manlike hoofkarakter, Jakob, is ’n vurige Poolse student wat tydens die oorlog by die Poolse weerstandsbeweging aansluit. Die beweging het hoofsaaklik guerrilla-aanvalle op beide Duitse en Russiese magte gedoen, gestreef na die outonomie van Pole na die oorlog, en vlugtelinge, ook Jode, gehelp. Wanneer Gretl se suster sterf, en die Poolse vrou ook nie meer na haar kan omsien nie, word Gretl Jakob se verantwoordelikheid. Gretl weet nie waar of wie die familie is waarheen hulle op pad was nie, dus neem hy haar saam na sy ouerhuis in Czestochowa. Daar is egter geweldige armoede en tekorte in die naoorlogse Pole, sodat sy teen die einde van 1947 ook nie meer daar kan bly nie. Jakob lees van ’n program wat Duitse wesies na Suid-Afrika stuur en hy kry haar daar in. In Suid-Afrika word Gretl aangeneem deur Kate en Bernard Neethling van Ver wink die Suiderkruis en word verder groot op hulle familieplaas in die Bosveld. Gretl het haar lewe begin as ’n Duitsertjie in die Lutherse Kerk. Toe haar pa sterf, het die res van die gesin by haar weduwee-ouma gaan bly. Hier volg hulle Joodse gebruike. By Jakob se familie beland sy in ’n Pools-Katolieke gemeenskap. In Suid-Afrika moet sy aanpas in ’n konserwatiewe Calvinistiese Afrikanerhuis, -skool en -gemeenskap. Sy ontsnap na ’n wereld van haar eie waar realiteit en fantasie vermeng raak om die verlange na Jakob te temper. Tydens die Poolse Rewolusie van 1956 word Jakob gedwing om Pole te verlaat en te vlug na Suid-Afrika. Uiteindelik vind Gretl en Jakob mekaar weer, maar albei het intussen verander. Sy is ’n pragtige derdejaar- B.A.-student aan Tuks wat weet wat sy wil he, maar nie seker is wie sy is nie. Hy is ’n ingenieur van byna 35, ontnugter en ontwortel, maar vasbeslote om in hierdie sterk anti-kommunistiese land ’n toekoms te bou. Wanneer hulle ontdek dat daar gevoelens tussen hulle is, weier haar pa, aangesien Jakob ’n Katoliek is. As twee randkarakters in hulle nuwe gemeenskap, met al hulle bagasie wat hulle saamsleep, moet die twee mekaar ondersteun hier onder die fel suiderson.

Laat een aand in 1914 word die Boeregeneraal Koos de la Rey op pad na 'n beplande rebellie noodlottig gewond. Die teiken was die berugte bendelid William Foster. Dat De la Rey in die spervuur beland het, was pure toeval. Of was dit? Op pad na Moormansgat is 'n verweefde tapisserie waarin die verhale van vele vertel word, oor dekades heen en uit alle lae van die samelewing. Dis die storie en nalatenskap van Billy Foster se dogter, Helena, op soek na haar herkoms; dis die trawalle van die hensopper Segrys Heyns en sy agterryer Tappies Mahlangu; die speurtog van poliesman Isak Heyns, op soek na die gewetenlose moordenaars wat 'n driejarige seuntjie se familie eensklaps uitgewis het, en die moontlikheid dat die aanvallige jong vrou Helena aandadig aan die moorde kon wees. Dis 'n roman van waarhede en verdigsel, oor dekades heen, 'n verloop van klein en groot geskiedenisse en die immer smagting na oomblikke van vrede en versoening. 'n Merkwaardige, hoogs leesbare geskiedkundige roman.
