Publisher's summary

Teen die agtergrond van soutmyne en granietkoppe vertel Droomdelwers die verhaal van twee klein gemeenskappe aan die Weskus - Soutmansvlei en Vlaktevlei. Hier word die lewens van armes en rykes, van wit en bruin, ten nouste verweef. Hier loop uiteenlopende karakters rond, elk met sy eie storie. Soos oom Kêppies sê: “ Hy’s soesie see, soes ’n branner. Voorlat jy hom kan vasvat, sien jy net sy skymstriep oppie sand lê.” Maar nog voordat die skuim op die sand lê, word die rustige lewensloop van “die sout van die aarde” skielik bedreig. Hulle kom te staan voor ʼn oormag. Daar is net een uitweg na vrywording vir almal: om in die verlede te delf waar die antwoord op vreemde raaisels so ver en en tog so naby lê.

Please note: This audiobook is in Afrikaans.

5 sterre

So met beurtkrag op vlak 6 wonder ek en manlief wat ons kan doen om die tyd om te wyl. Sê hy: “kry vir ons daar ‘n Afrikaanse storie, vrou.” Ek soek en kom toe af op Droomdelwers, ons middel dogter se voorgeskrewe boek, so ‘n paar jaar terug. Wat ‘n heerlike luister fees: lank nadat die ligte weer begin brand het ons vasgevang in die storie nog geluister. Ons kon net nie ophou nie. Ons het saam met die mense in die storie gelag en gehuil - en ek het het heimlik onderneem om dieselfde vergifnis uit te leef as die mense van Soutmansvlei en Vlaktevlei.

Ek geniet die storie

Ek hou van die manier hoe die storie van verskillende oogpunte kom, en die storie loop aan een.
