Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

The author, an anthropologist and professor of comparative literature in New York City, lets the whites in a village near Cape Town speak of their past and future, their attitudes and expectations, their feelings about blacks and coloureds, their reactions to criticism from abroad. PW found this "painful but rewarding" reading.
