My Traitor`s Heart: Blood and Bad Dreams a South African Explores the Madness in His Country,His Tribe and Himself

This title comes with a new introduction by the author. In 70s South Africa, Rian Malan – descendant of the architects of apartheid, middle-class white boy, friend to blacks – went to work as a crime reporter for a local Johannesburg rag. There he encountered first-hand the horrors wrought by apartheid: the poverty, injustice and violence. After an eight-year exile, he returned to write this book. With gripping stories and in mesmerising prose, this is Malan`s attempt to understand his country, its racial hatred, and his own tortured conscience.
