In We are not all like that, (translated into English by André Brink) life is illuminated by a white family from the lower middle class in the fifties, which gets involved in all sorts of problems. It is told from the perspective of the daughter, Gertie. The appearance has caused a stir in South Africa because of the attention it drew to the existence of 'poor white'.[1] The novel Daantjie Dreamer (1993) is about a family from the fifties. The narrator is the daughter Bubbles, who wants to free herself from the environment in which she grew up. Through her conversations with her philosophically inclined brother Daantjie Dreamer, she comes to new insights about political matters and she is aware of her own identity. Works
