HERMANUS HISTORY

Cover and layout design by Stella Stofberg

HERMANUS HISTORY: PEOPLE AND EVENTS THAT TOUCHED OUR TOWN

1820 TO 2018 by Robin Lee

Hermanus history has unique elements: a healthy environment, marine attractions (fish, sharks, abalone and whales), and ‘wild flowers’ in profusion. The climate drew the wealthiest classes for holidays. In many cases it led to a lifelong interest in the town. Prime ministers, governors-general, European aristocracy, artists, writers and actors created their histories beyond Hermanus. But they had an influence on Hermanus.

These nine essays examine the better-known of these visitors. What were their experiences in Hermanus?  What were their lives beyond Hermanus? The cast includes a general manager of South African Railways, an ‘elephant whisperer’, a recipient of the Victoria Cross, and the organiser of ‘the Great Escape’. Each touched the town and the town folded them into its history.

GANNA & ROOSMARYN

Omslagontwerp en uitleg deur Stella Stofberg

GANNA & ROOSMARYN DEUR NELLIE ALBERTS

Hierdie bundel warm, aardse verhale uit die dorre streke van ons land vertel van mense wat met humor en gesonde verstand in ʼn ongenaakbare wêreld oorleef. Net soos met haar debuutbundel, Geitjievoet & Hondebal, beskryf Nellie Alberts in Ganna & Roosmaryn onvergeetlike karakters uit al die lae van die lewe met insig en deernis. Elk van die 39 stories is ʼn kort, humoristiese juweeltjie, deurweef van lewenswysheid; skerpsinnig en sonder draaie.

Ontmoet die Engel van Kenhardt; kry saam lekker wanneer Satang hom voordoen as motorverkoopsman en sy rieme styfloop; lees oor die aand van die ’69-aardbewing toe ʼn “ding” in oom Greg Maragelis se bioskoopsaal uitgespring en mense halsoorkop die strate laat invaar het. Leer ken oom Karel Kontant wat ʼn nuwe ryding soek, maar nie ene met ʼn “jast-ien-kys”-slinger nie; loop saam die hartseerpad van werkerskore op hul laaste Oukrismisbesoeke aan boereplase.

Deur al die verhale is verweef die bittersoet van swaarkry, armoede en die onvermoë om ʼn veranderende wêreld te begryp. Saam met die ontvolking van die platteland sal die lieg- en lagstories seker ook mettertyd kwyn en opdroog.
