Book Synopsis Truth is a Strange Fruit by : David Beresford

Book excerpt: Twice voted Britain's top foreign correspondent, David Beresford has produced a 'word picture' of South Africa's Apartheid War. Borrowing from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and plundering his own journalism, he gives his 'truth' of the apartheid years. He has woven through the book the love letters of John Harris - the 'station bomber', awaiting execution on Pretoria's death row. In combination, these paint an often harrowing and heart-breaking, but brilliant picture of South Africa. -- Cover, p. [4].
