O knihe
An autobiography of a South African Black, this book tells of the life of a political activist, driven into exile, back to his homeland, and to return into exile again. It explores his formative experiences, and the traumatic impact of apartheid on a life. Yet, the phoenix rose from the ashes! Through the narrative, one follows his flight into exile, and its implications on his professional and family life. Still, he yearned to be involved in rebuiliding a nation oppressed for centuries. His story describes his homecoming to South Africa, post-apartheid, and his extensive work in Public Health through the Health Development Institute - a ground-breaking, multi-disciplinary venture that reached out to the "have-not"s.
Born poor and schooled by missionaries, Mxolisi encountered interrogation by the South African Security Forces as a schoolboy. The hounding followed him through university, medical school and private practice, culminating in flight into exile when assassination was imminent. His return "home" was fruitful, but opened his eyes to unanticipated political hurdles and disappointment: Were his beloved people free in name only?
This is a tale of one forced to flee, yet again: his journey "From Exile to Exile".
