Summary:
"Before his death of HIV-related causes in 1994. Koos Prinsloo published four ground-breaking collections of short stories. His engagement with male power and identity, South Africa under states of emergency, and the world as a place of desire and slaughter is as fresh and original today as it was thirty years ago. This timely new collections, superbly translated by Gerrit Olivier, includes the whole of Slagplaas (1992), and a selection of stories from Jonk-manskas (1982), Die Hemel Help Ons (1987) and Weifeling (1993)." --cover page [4].
