'n Sendelingseun vra hom in 1976 af: wat gaan in Suid-Afrika aan? Hy gaan militêre diensplig doen, en die vraag word akuut: wat word hier van sy mense? Dan bekwaam hy hom as antropoloog en word ontwikkelingsamptenaar in KwaZulu-Natal, waar nog lae van die uieskil wegval: hy sien hoeveel die apartheidsregering, maar nog veel meer die Britte voorheen, se burokratiese waansin, politieke manipulering en grondgierigheid die geweld daar gestook het. Uiteindelik gaan doen hy veldwerk in die afgeleë bergland van Msinga, 'n kookpot van geweld. Maar hier is dit Afrika wie se maskers voor hom wegval, en hom laat kennis maak met 'n ander gees, lankmoedig, ouer en wyser as die van Westerlinge wat hulleself oor die plaaslike mense aangestel het. My hart wil Afrika is Tienie Swanepoel se eie verhaal, onthutsend openhartig vertel. Hy neem jou tot diep in die misterieuse hart van Afrika - daar waar gevaar hou, maar ook allesomvattende menslikheid. 'n Passievolle, otstellende maar uiteindelik inspirerende oproep aan wit mede-Afrikane om deel te word van hul eie vasteland.

How we describe the condition of our books

We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)

New: Exactly as it says.

As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.

Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.

Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.

Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.

Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
