Product Description

Anthony Sampson

A remarkable memoir, which reads like a racy comic thriller but conveys all the more poignantly the suffering behind the laughter.


Doris Lessing

One of the livliest books about the pre-Mandela era - a very enjoyable read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Who Killed Mr Drum?, 9 April 2003
By A Customer
'Who Killed Mr Drum?' is a monument to the talented, creative hard-hitting, hard-living, hard-drinking journalists who, in the late fifties, worked for the legendary South African magazine 'Drum'. These were brave young men who risked everything to make 'Drum' the clear voice of urban Africans and to enable it to become Africa's leading magazine. They stood against the injustices imposed on millions of black Africans by a brutally oppressive regime and theirs was also a constant struggle to assert their personal human rights and dignity. Sylvester Stein, who knew them all as friends and colleagues, poses the question: why did so many of them die young? In answering this question his book raises other deep, eternal and disturbing questions. Sylvester Stein's writing is relaxed and varied and fun! The book breathes a haunting elegiac quality throughout but it also wonderfully evokes the irrepressible spirit and the wild humour that were necessary to those desperate times. this book needs to be read by all who would understand the Apartheid years in South Africa.
