Tough Choices: Reflections of an Afrikaner AfricanSlabbert is a sharp, analytical thinker who has moved in the innermost circles of politics. This publication contains a wealth of fascinating, as yet untold information, in a spicy, extremely readable style. Ultimately it deals with the consciousness of identity, of being Afrikaans and living in Africa -- modes of being that, like birthmarks, are not chosen but innate. The foreword is by Breyten Breytenbach. |
