Ebook About
A gay South African endures military conscription during the Angola Bush War in this autobiographical novel of persecution and hope— An “electrifying debut” (Shelf Awareness).Nicholas van der Swart always knew he was different, but to avoid the violent punishments that come with being gay in Apartheid South Africa, he has carefully kept his true self a secret. By the standards of his brutal father and the machismo culture of Afrikaners, “moffies” like him deserve nothing but scorn. Then, at nineteen years old, Nicholas is drafted into the South African army. He soon finds himself caught in a world entirely at odds with his identity, forced to fight for a cause he doesn’t believe in. Here, he will face the hatred and violence of his tormenters, but will also experience his first glimmers of love, and finally find the strength to survive.A long overdue account of Apartheid South Africa’s criminalization of homosexuality, André Carl van der Merwe’s acclaimed debut novel is the basis for the critically acclaimed film Moffie, directed by Oliver Hermanus.

Book Moffie Review :



Being about 2-4 years younger than the author growing up with the same dilemma I can remember the joy when we were told that the draft was cancelled. I never went through the pain and torture of “Basic” but I steeled myself for it all through highscool without realising what I was doing. Cutting emotions so I could keep out the snide comments that hurt so much. The pain of not accepting why I liked sport practice where we played without shirts the scary showered reactions I’d get afterwards.This book just makes so much sense of what was all bad in a government that was so wrong on many levels and has never come back and apologised for its torment and terror.In truth I was never a South African having nationalised there as a kid but it’s something I still do not hold dear to me and keep my 1st nationality as my pride because of these pains I was forced to go through. This book was amazing in giving voice to so many of the feelings I felt,suppressed and yearned for. I’m glad I can read it now 20 years later when I’m bolder and stronger. Twenty year old me would never have picked up this book. Now I’ll cherish every part I’ve read and re-read cause it moved me that I felt the exact same. A great book and I hope the author writes the inferred sequel about their next step of life and the issues that that brought too.
This is quite an amazing book. Having visited South Africa on two occasions in recent years, I have some appreciation of the country now, but not of the terrible apartheid years. The narrator's difficulties with his very strict Dutch Reformed father, and growing up gay (a "Moffie") are dealt with well, but it is his time as a closeted gay man in the Sth African Defence Force serving on the Angolan Border that is most brilliantly covered with all the violence, bigotry and cruelty of that era in the military extremely well portrayed. The author's friends are well characterised and one's heart goes out especially to Dylan. The scene when the narrator meets Dylan's father is heart-breaking and desperately moving.I have previously read the novels of another Sth African, Mark Behr, now sadly deceased too early, which also cover the dilemmas of gay youngsters growing up in apartheid Sth Africa - "The smell of Apples", and "Embrace". There are scenes in "The Smell of Apples" very reminiscent of Andre Carl van der Merwe's book, which continues worthily in this tradition. Anyone interested in learning more about apartheid South Africa and being gay in the armed forces in the era before gay men and lesbian women were accepted into the military should definitely read this thought-provoking book.
