A classic of literary nonfiction, My Traitor's Heart has been
acclaimed as a masterpiece by readers around the world. Rian Malan
is an Afrikaner, scion of a centuries-old clan and relative of the
architect of apartheid, who fled South Africa after coming
face-to-face with the atrocities and terrors of an undeclared civil
war between the races. This book is the searing account of his
return after eight years of uneasy exile.
Armed with new insight and clarity, Malan explores apartheid's
legacy of hatred and suffering, bearing witness to the extensive
physical and emotional damage it has caused to generations of South
Africans on both sides of the color line. Plumbing the darkest
recesses of the white and black South African psyches, Malan
ultimately finds his way toward the light of redemption and
healing. My Traitor's Heart is an astonishing book -- beautiful,
horrifying, profound, and impossible to put down.
