"Because from a gang from Jakkaalsdrif a farmer get's a day's work blood cheap, and at the end of the day the truck fetches them and they are gone and he doesn't have to worry about them or their families, they can starve, they can be cold, he knows nothing, it's none of his business."
J. M. Coetzee, Life & Times of Michael K, p. 82.
