Jessie Die Maan En Die Maan

by Jannous Nkululeko Aukema

An actor. A windowpane. A chair. A simple story. A man falls in love with a woman. A child is born on a full moon night. A woman dies at the hand of a man. The son keeps searching for his mother in the moon. Every night. Until he meets his demise in the river where he believes his mother’s reflection shines. A man’s story of grief. Grief for his wife. Grief for his son. Grief for the realisation of the system that he must face each day.
