A Land Apart: A Contemporary South African Reader

The voices of South Africa: a superb collection of writings from a country torn by political struggle.

André Brink and J. M. Coetzee, two of South Afirca's most important authors, have compiled a collection of English and Afrikaans writings that give a unique and vivid picture of the reality of life in South Africa during the past decade. In a time of political turmoil and violence, these writers have struggled to both explain and affect the society of their native land.
