Jacket design by Candy Jernigan. keywords: Literature South Africa Afrikaans. FROM THE PUBLISHER - An Afrikaaner by birth, Breyten Brevtenbach has led a life distinguished by his moral courage in opposing the South African state. Celebrated in his own country as the finest Afrikaans poet of his generation and as a painter of distinction, Breytenbach left South Africa for Europe in the late 1950s, pursuing both his artistic and his political vocations. He soon became one of the leading white opponents of apartheid. Breytenbach's clandestine return to South Africa in 1975 resulted in his arrest and imprisonment as a 'terrorist.' The True Confessions of an Albino Terrorist, Breytenbach's memoir of his seven years in prison (two spent in solitary confinement) is a classic of prison literature. Memory of Snow and of Dust is something of a departure for Breytenbach. It is an ambitious, complex novel of contemporary Africa, as well as a profound meditation on exile, betrayal, and love. Set in the near future, both in Europe and in a South Africa now in chaos, the book chronicles the lives of Meheret, an Ethiopian journalist, and her lover, Mano, a South African actor of 'mixed blood.' In the long letter to her unborn child that constitutes the first part of the novel, Meheret recounts her family's history. It is a fantastic amalgam of people ranging from the Emperor Haile Selassie to Guebre Gsiaber, the tango champion of Ethiopia. Meheret tells of her love affair with Mano, and of how he was lured back to South Africa, arrested, and sentenced to death. Mano had returned to his country to do research for a film about the life of Barnum, an exiled white South African writer. Barnum is the counterpoint in the novel to Mano, a figure at once heroic and exploitative. Barnum incarnates all the contradictions of the artist and the politically engaged person, and in him Breytenbach has created a paradigmatic antihero. inventory #12981. N° de réf. du vendeur z12981
