Not Home Yet: A South African Journey, by Justin Cartwright (used)
Starting with the run-up to the South African elections of 1994, the acclaimed writer Justin Cartwright has followed the fortunes of the new South Africa up to the present day. Part travelogue, part autobiography, this book looks at the country of Cartwright's birth from a novelist's point of view.
'A fascinating insight into the new South Africa, its people and its cultural life - art, music, literature, theatre and rugby. Cartwright has the eye of the perceptive observer, the ear of the discerning listener as he describes the sights and sounds of the rainbow nation.' - Financial Times
'One element of South Africa's good fortune is the capacity to produce writers such as Justin Cartwright - able to unveil more and more of South Africa's problems and achievements in its first few years of freedom.' - Donald Woods, Daily Express
'Acute and perceptive...a highly intelligent book. Cartwright's unique perspective as an insider turned outsider makes this the most penetrating as well as the best written account of the new South Africa I've read.' - Scotsman
'An astute, often hilarious guide to South Africa's cultural revolution.' - Daily Telegraph
