THE ILLUSTRATED BOSMAN
WITH ILLUSTRATIONS BY PETER BADCOCK
PHOTOGRAPHS BY DAVID GOLDBLATT
"GENIUS" with all its glorious eccentric and tainted associations, is a thoroughly appropriate word for the standing of Herman Charles Bosman" writes Lionel Abrahams in his exploration of Bosman's private life and the workings of his mind. Yet Bosman's genius, in it's simplicity, is accesible to us all. His are stories that 'draw children from the fire and old men from the chimney corner'
This first ever illustrated selection of his work takes the new Bosman reader right to the heart of his world in some of his best stories, highlighted by Peter Badcock's finely worked drawings in black and white and colour.
Photograps by leading South African photographer, David Goldblatt, taken on a trip to Bosman's beloved Marico bushveld in 1964, introduce us to teal life characters from whom Bosman drew his inspiration.
