Afrikaner journalist Malan recounts his return to his homeland just before the collapse of Apartheid. He grapples with the black and white heart of South Africa, drawing on the 300-year history of his family in Africa, legends of the Zulu nation and some brutally honest reporting. Candid, beautifully written and impossible to put down.  (SAF19, $15.00)
