Always Another Country A Memoir of Exile and Home
Reviews

A different perspective on South African apartheid through the life of a child of ANC exiles. I found it difficult to get into this, and found it quite a chore to read, while I think all stories from apartheid are important, I found it hard to empathise with this particular family and their lives with maids, drivers, private school with UN employed parents. I read a great book on black upper class elite during apartheid last year that I loved, so that’s not the issue, but this particular biography resembles the lives of many upper to middle class Africans in post colonial Africa most of whom are part of the political elite. Still id recommend to someone who wants insight into South Africa and it’s rising middle class during and post apartheid.
