Twa die Tydloper is the long-awaited novel by bestselling author Anoeschka von Meck, whose first book sold over 200 000 copies. Vaselinetjie, published in 2004, got prescribed at schools, developed a cult following, and was turned into a movie. Anoeschka became an overnight phenomenon. Although she has written other novels since, Twa die Tydloper is the first of her books that's in the same vein as the madly popular Vaselinetjie: Once again, the main character is a young, vulnerable girl, left to her own devices, who needs to take her fate into her own hands. With Vaselinetjie, our tragic yet brave heroine was Helena Bosman, nicknamed Vaselinetjie, who was sent to a children's home at a young age where she had to brace herself for a harsh new world. This time, in the promising new book Twa die Tydloper, our protagonist is a young girl nicknamed Twa or Twalie. She grows up in a poor, rough, and isolated family who leads a tough subsistence existence in the Namibian desert against all odds. Just like Vaselinetjie, Twa has to fend for herself and carve out an escape and a future despite her tragic circumstances. With the help of an old Nama woman called Letgoed, she discovers a portal, a time warp in the desert, in a magical place called Die Poort (The Gateway). This will allow her to not only change her future but, perhaps, also her past... Based on a true story, this is a gripping tale of survival, grit, and of the magic that awaits one in the desert when you keep an open heart and an open mind.
