Red Dog Hardback

Hardback
Description
LONGLISTED FOR THE 2020 INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZEAt the end of the eighteenth century, a giant strides the Cape Colony frontier.
Coenraad de Buys is a legend, a polygamist, a swindler and a big talker; a rebel who fights with Xhosa chieftains against the Boers and British; the fierce patriarch of a sprawling mixed-race family with a veritable tribe of followers; a savage enemy and a loyal ally.
Like the wild dogs who are always at his heels, he roams the shifting landscape of southern Africa, hungry and spoiling for a fight.
This is his story; the story of his country, and of our blood-soaked history.
