Cornelius Molapo, an urban dandy, poet, dancer, and political
orator, becomes the leader of the South African National Liberation
Movement in this work of fiction that exposes the underside of a
fictional revolutionary movement in the last years of apartheid.
Ordered to lead a peasant uprising in remote Tabanyane, Cornelius
becomes a pawn in a much bigger political game. This reluctant
leader disappears, but returns as a dedicated revolutionary who
would choose death over defeat. In energetic and crafted language,
this story brings elements of a political thriller into a
sophisticated human drama.
