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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"isbns separator\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"I H Pentz Booksellers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47268930093218,"sku":null,"price":120.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0364\/4047\/3732\/files\/9780869750773-us.jpg?v=1778834437","url":"https:\/\/pentzbooks.co.za\/products\/in-the-heart-of-the-country-by-j-m-coetzee","provider":"I H Pentz Booksellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
