pickThis is still one of the best and most gripping stories I have ever read. Set in my home country, South Africa, it tells a tale of a young baby boy being left on the doorstep of Fiela's house. She raises him as her own, only to be ripped from her, 9 years later, as he is a white little boy.
Benjamin's life takes many turns with him new, white family, set in the Knysna woodlands. 10 stars
Book-mail arrived today. I decided to read the famous Fiela's Child and Circles in a Forest from Dalene Matthee in the original language Afrikaans.
So very excited 🤓💜
Reading one of my own country, South Africa's best authors, best books. 🌞
Although, all her books are amazing 🤓
FIELA SE KIND (Fiela's Child) is one of the best books ever written and I love it so much! I own two copies of the movie and this week I was privileged to work as a stage manager at the Free State Arts festival on the stage production of it, with the original Fiela (Shaleen Surtie-Richards, who played Fiela in the movie) and I went all out fangirl! Featured above is my first edition copy of the book, now signed by the entire cast! K
