  • "For thirteen-year old Karl De Man, the past is a mostly sunny childhood growing up on game reserves. The future holds the promise of freedom and success; as a student at an exclusive South African music academy for boys, he can nurture his desire to excel. But the present forces Karl to deal with the more urgent concerns presented to a boy on the threshold of manhood - the nature of love and friendship, the arena of the body, the encroachments of politics, and the dangers of betrayal. -- Publisher's description."@en
