Petra Muller het 'n lang verbintenis met Swellendam gehad. As tienjarige kom woon sy hier toe haar vader 'n polisieman op die dorp word. Sy matrikuleer hier en gaan studeer dan aan die US. Daarna word sy joernalis en ook uitgewer. Later in haar lewe koop sy 'n huis op Swellendam en woon hier as sy nie in Kaapstad is nie.Hierdie bundel bestaan uit 4 afdelings: akademiese artikels oor haar werk, essays oor haar werk en lewe, 'n pragtige foto-essay met foto's wat tot nou net in familiebesit was en 'n aantal gedigte deur bekende Afrikaanse digters as huldeblyk aan haar. Bydraers sluit bekende name in soos Louise Viljoen, Sonja Loots , Joan Hambidge, Karen De Wet Afrikaans en Hettie Scholtz . Kom kuier saam met ons op Swellendam vroeg in die nuwe jaar wanneer ons Petra Muller huldig met hierdie pragtige publikasie.

OUR LONGEST RESIDENT WANTS TO MEET YOU!!
UP FOR ADOPTION AT SWELLENDAM SPCA: ROLO MALE
MIXED BREED BORN 10.10.21
ROLO has been with us since he was a tiny puppy and it is so sad to see him growing up in kennels. ROLO is a gorgeous looking dog who showers one with love and kisses. He is very playful and well socialised with other dogs. A boy this handsome, friendly and loving surely deserves a home where he can be happy and loved.
If you are interested in adopting, please contact the office on 028 514 2083 for more information or make an appointment to MEET HIM.
