LOVE AFFAIRS CAN INDUCE STEEP LEARNING CURVES.

This certainly happens to Margret Hansen, a young nursery school teacher living in a country town in post-war Germany, but longing for a broader stage upon which to live her life. Her wish seems to come true when, unexpectedly, she falls in love with a wealthy man from out of town. He opens her eyes to a glittering world beyond the drudgery of her provincial lifestyle and the home she shares with her mother and grandmother. But the stars in her eyes turn to tears when she discovers that she has become pregnant. Now she is forced to face herself, to untangle many dilemmas and to make some life-altering decisions.

DO YOU WANT TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE?

Of course you want to be successful. Everybody does! But have you ever taken the time to think and establish what, exactly, this concept of success means to you? This has to be the starting point, for you can never attain anything in life without first being absolutely clear on what that ‘thing’ is. Many of us jump onto the traditional bandwagon which has been created and perpetuated by society in general, where a good job; a good salary; a nice house; a nice car etc. are the things we chase, often mindlessly, in order to be considered successful. In other words, money (and the things it can buy) equals success.

BUT WHAT DOES SUCCESS MEAN TO ME? AND HOW CAN I ATTAIN MY SUCCESS?

No White Lies

No White Lies is a refreshing treatise on Post-1994 South Africa.

‘It is difficult to find a more honest and brutal assessment of South Africa’s new political dispensation.

‘Kim writes that “the Rainbow Nation, consummated without revolutionary romance in 1994, has since been unmasked as a deceptive act of seduction to ensure that white power and privilege maintained a choke on the throat of the South African economy”. For those that wallow in ideological confusion and limbo, these articles should serve as an antidote to the emasculation of the South African revolution. For now, black politics is entangled in apartheid thinking, with no possibility of escaping colonial entrapment.’ – Professor Sipho Seepe

What I Wore Being Black and...

BEING BLACK AND BI-POLAR IN SOUTH AFRICA

‘My struggles with mental illness were in some ways like a child crying out for attention; more than that they were a cry for help from the mind I felt trapped in. There was a darkness in me that many times swallowed me whole.’

This is how Keamogetswe Bopalamo introduces her account of her troubled early life. It is an intensely personal account, and yet it speaks to a reality much broader than itself. In the exciting whirl of South Africa’s post-apartheid society, there is this darker side: the confusions, the fears, the rebellions, the degradations and emotional pain.
