Anker, Willem,

Red dog : a frontier novel / Willem Anker ; translated by Michiel Heyns. - First edition. - 427 pages ; 24 cm

Coenraad de Buys was the most dangerous man around in the Cape of the late seventeen hundreds. He was a giant, a legend, a polygamist, a swindler and a big talker, the bane of government; father to chieftains and a whole Buysvolk of his own. He restlessly walked the uneasy landscape of southern Africa like the wild dogs who were always at his heels, always in his head - especially the earless red dog who put Buys on his renegade path. He was born in the Langkloof. He died on the banks of the Limpopo. But Buys is not dead.


Originally published in Afrikaans as: Buys : 'n grensroman.
