Pieter-Dirk Uys converts hit 80s play into new novel PanoramaPanorama celebrates the people who through their shared passion for a beloved country managed to communicate and even laugh with each other in spite of fear, guilt and prejudice. - TheSouthAfrican.com, 6 August, 2014 Panorama, the moving and thought-provoking new novel by Pieter-Dirk Uys is based on his remarkable early play of the same name. During the last half of the previous century Robben Island was the international symbol of resistance against apartheid. Nelson Mandela was but one of the imprisoned freedom fighters who eventually led South Africa into democracy in 1994. And yet there was suburban life in the shadow of the prison. Rosa and Karin are two white Afrikaans schoolteachers who do not look at the walls and barbed wire along their path to their cottage on the island. They sit in their small world and look at the magnificence of Table Mountain across the bay, a view that has become iconic, an inspiration they call their Panorama. For 24 hours in 1987, Sibi Makhale is allowed to visit her dying father in the maximum security prison. The daughter of banned parents, Sibi comes face to face with the two suspicious and frightened schoolteachers. It will prove a life-changing experience for all of them. Over two decades later, Sibi returns to the Island now a World Heritage Site with her two born-free sons. It is an attempt at closure for her, an adventure for her boys, and for the reader a remarkable journey back from the dark past. Panorama celebrates the people who through their shared passion for a beloved country managed to communicate and even laugh with each other in spite of fear, guilt and prejudice. The story and its characters will stay with you long after youve finished reading this poignant and funny novel. Panorama, a novel - Pieter-Dirk Uys. Missing Ink 2013. ISBN 9780992206000
