Sunday Book Discussion Group
Location: OISE, 252 Bloor St. West 11:00am - 12:30 pmBook: Long Walk to Freedom (we will be reading the last part of this acclaimed autobiography of Nelson Mandela)
Author: Nelson Mandela Date: Sunday, May 9, 2010 OISE, Room TBA (see front desk) "In a time of political cynicism, Nelson Mandela's union of pragmatism and principle is a blazing triumph. The publication of his autobiography is a drama in itself: he wrote much of it secretly in prison on Robben Island; his jailers found the manuscript where he'd buried it; they didn't know that the prisoners had smuggled out another copy. Now Mandela has revised and updated that account with the collaboration of Time magazine contributor Richard Stengel... "I didn't have an epiphany," he says of his political role. His court speeches are as thrilling as ever, but it's the personal voice, sometimes restrained, sometimes furious, frank about failure, funny about his own weakness, that gives this story its compelling authority... His democracy is grounded in his awareness of human frailty and courage." Previous Titles Discussed Beyond the Crazy House |
