Media Reviews
Excellent...[a] harrowing and surprising story. The ultimate power of the book comes from an authoritative meditation on the traps that open up for someone who answers to himself before society * Scotsman *
The revolt of the reasonable...far more deadly than any amount of shouting from the housetops * Guardian *
Impossible to recommend too highly * Time Out *
Books like this one succeed...in drawing our emotions into politics. What will remain is the plain bravery of his characters...their struggle has found an honest chronicler * Daily Telegraph *
Andre Brink's writing is built on conviction...A Dry White Season describes the triumph of tyranny * The Times *
