Language plays a central role throughout A Change of Tongue. As an Afrikaans-speaking writer working across linguistic and cultural boundaries, Krog explores the relationship between language and identity, questioning how individuals communicate, understand one another and negotiate their sense of belonging in a diverse society.
The narrative offers an intimate perspective on the experiences of individuals and communities adjusting to new political and social realities. Krog’s expressive writing blends personal experience with broader reflections on reconciliation, cultural identity, historical memory and the changing South African landscape.
A Change of Tongue is an important addition to any collection of South African literature, particularly for readers interested in post-apartheid history, Afrikaans literary traditions, cultural transformation and contemporary South African society.
