The play focussed on a reinterpretation of the Anglo-Boer War and the notion of an Afrikaner Nation. The fact that the play asks “what is a nation?” led to a direct confrontation with [[H.F Verwoerd]]  and significantly broadened the growing split between the government and the more liberal Afrikaner writers. First published by ** in  ?*Human en Rousseau in 196*.Published by [[Human & Rousseau]].
