  • "En una remota granja de Sudáfrica, Magda sufre en silencio la dureza del desierto y la tiranía de un padre que la condenó desde el momento en que nació mujer."
  • "Magda et son père vivent isolés dans le veld sud-africain. Orpheline de mère, honteuse de sa laideur et de sa virginité, Magda vit dans la peur du baas, son père, qui laisse planer sur elle la menace de l'inceste et pour qui elle éprouve une haine amoureuse. Quand Hendrik, le contremaître, ramène au domaine la belle Anna qu'il vient d'épouser, Magda sombre dans la folie meurtrière."
  • "Stifled by the torpor of colonial South Africa and trapped in a web of reciprocal oppression, a lonely sheep farmer seeks comfort in the arms of a black concubine. But when his embittered spinster daughter Magda feels shamed, this lurch across the racial divide marks the end of a tenuous feudal peace."

  • "On a remote farm in South Africa, the protagonist of [this] novel watches the life from which she has been excluded. Ignored by her callous father, scorned and feared by his servants, she is a bitterly intelligent woman whose outward meekness disguises a desperate resolve to not become "one of the forgotten ones in history." When her father takes and African mistress, that resolve precipitates an act of vengeance that suggests a chemical reaction between the colonizer and the colonized - and between European yearnings and the vastness and solitude of Africa."

  • "Stifled by the torpor of colonial South Africa, and trapped in a web of reciprocal oppression, a lonely sheep farmer seeks comfort in the arms of a black concubine. But when his embittered spinster daughter Magda feels shamed, this lurch across the racial divide marks the end of a tenuous feudal peace. As she dreams madly of bloody revenge, Magda's consciousnes sstarts to drift and the line between fact and the workings of her excited imagination becomes blurred. What follows is the fable of a woman's passionate, obsessed and violent response to an Africa that will not heed her. --Amazon.com."
