Willie Esterhuyse vertel die volle verhaal van die agter-die-skerms
ontmoetinge tussen ANC-leiers en 'n paar uitgesoekte Afrikaners in
die onstuimige tagtigerjare. Die hoogs-vertroulike gesprekke in
Engeland was deurslaggewend vir die begin van onderhandelinge
tussen die destydse regering en die ANC – en die uiteindelike
oorgang in Suid-Afrika. Met fassinerende inligting oor onder meer
geheime tronkgesprekke met Nelson Mandela, wat in PW Botha se
situasiekamer aangegaan het, en hoe die Intelligensiediens die land
van grootskaalse geweld probeer "red" het deur in te gryp in die
skaakspel tussen die partye. Die boek met sy talle anekdotes en
persoonlike aanslag bied 'n vars, soms onthutsende blik op bekende
Suid-Afrikaanse leiersfigure. Die skrywer kyk ook na die redes vir
die geheimhouding en maak 'n sterk argument uit vir die soort
nie-amptelike byeenkomste waar leiers nie hul onverbiddelike
openbare standpunte hoef te handhaaf nie. Die boek sluit af met 'n
uitgesproke en soms skokkende analise van die stand van die
Suid-Afrikaanse staat vandag. Een van die boeke van die jaar vir
2012. Die verhaal is nog nooit so vertel nie. 'n Onthullende boek
van groot belang, en lekker om te lees.
