Challenging the stereotype that black people who lived under South
African apartheid have no happy memories of the past, this
examination into nostalgia carves out a path away from the
archetypical musings. Even though apartheid itself had no virtue,
the author, himself a young black man who spent his childhood under
apartheid, insists that it was not a vast moral desert in the lives
of those living in townships. In this deep meditation on the
experiences of those who lived through apartheid, it points out
that despite the poverty and crime, there was still art,
literature, music, and morals that, when combined, determined the
shape of black life during that era of repression.
