Description
Summary:
"In the year 2002, four friends are having a reunion on the Sunday after rock singer Johannes Kerkorrel's suicide. They reminisce about their days as students during the time of the Voëlvry tour when music became the soundtrack to their sexual and political awakening. Even when the Bush War wreaked havoc in their lives, they stayed saturated in the protest songs of Kerkorrel, Koos Kombuis and Bernoldus Niemand. Now, they have become disillusioned suburbanites. The death of their varsity friend Johnny remains a mystery, and still haunts all four of them, even after all these years."--Container.
