Louis Krüger se nuwe roman, Wederkoms. Die lewe en geskiedenis van Jannes Hoop, het my dadelik aan Jochem van Bruggen laat dink. Spesifiek aan Ampie...Die stereotiepe beeld wat baie mense oor die ouer Afrikaanse prosa koester, is van die oorheersende armoede en gesukkel van boere (of bywoners) wat moet veg teen droogtes, sprinkane en inhalige geldskieters, of op werkers wat onder haglike omstandighede uitgebuit word deur die nywerhede en myne (die kapitaliste van die grootstad). Op soortgelyke wyse is ook die "lewe en geskiedenis van Jannes Hoop", 'n geskiedenis van 'n lewe waarin elke hoopvolle wending, elke poging om uit die armoede te ontsnap, uitloop op 'n verdere ramp.

You're a loser, you were born a loser.' Was that the whole truth about Charlie MacFell? Was he just the kind of nice chap who always takes the dirty end of the stick, lacking the inner strength to take a firm stand in life or love alike?
