Cape Talk

We will always have a lot of crime and violence. So, yeah, I think it boils down to that. Anna Marie, I wish we had another half hour to carry on talking because I'd also love to have heard about your novel, which has been published in the interim as well. But we are out of time. The last thing to ask really is: is just when you were writing this book, you were sitting in the Netherlands far away from South Africa. Of course, you'd made several trips back in researching this book and coming back to be part of the funeral memorial process for your friend and his mother.
