Knew the Words but Not the Music – Clarence van Buuren
Knew the Words but Not the Music – Clarence van Buuren
Clarence van Buuren reflects on his life as a lawyer, politician, and activist in South Africa. With candour and wit, he explores the complexities of apartheid-era politics, the struggle for justice, and the personal costs of public service. His memoir offers rare insight into the contradictions of power, identity, and conscience in a turbulent time.
A candid, thoughtful memoir of South African political life — dense with historical value and the kind of personal honesty that makes political memoir essential reading. Buzzed for its South African political insight, authenticity, and historical relevance.
Perfect for fans of Nelson Mandela (Long Walk to Freedom), Albie Sachs (The Soft Vengeance of a Freedom Fighter), and Trevor Manuel (Politics in My Blood). A strong addition to any South African political memoirs collection.
A trade paperback (2001) in Very Good condition — minimal wear, crisp pages, binding tight.
