Abstract:
"This is a selection of tales gathered in Afrikaans from present-day Karoo storytellers. They animate the harsh but beautiful landscape with lively characters like cunning Jackal, silly Hyena, dangerous Water Snake and the sinister Foot-Eyes. Such tales were first documented in the 1870s by William Bleek and Lucy Lloyd."...Back cover. "The stories in this book were recorded in the area historically known as Bushmanland, south of the Gariep (Orange) River."...Page 8
