Allister Sparks Libros
Allister Haddon Sparks fue un escritor, periodista y comentarista político sudafricano. Ganó prominencia como editor de The Rand Daily Mail, que expuso el escándalo Muldergate, revelando la financiación secreta de proyectos de información del gobierno del apartheid. Sparks fue autor de varios libros aclamados que detallan la transición de Sudáfrica del apartheid. A través de su escritura, Sparks buscó comprender e iluminar las complejas transformaciones políticas y sociales de su nación.
Allister Sparks joined his first newspaper at age 17 and was pitched headlong into the vortex of South Africa's stormy politics. The Sword and the Pen is the story of how as a journalist he observed, chronicled and participated in his country's unfolding drama for more than 66 years, covering events from the premiership of DF Malan to the presidency of Jacob Zuma, witnessing at close range the rise and fall of apartheid and the rise and crisis of the new South Africa. In trenchant prose, Sparks has written a remarkable account of both a life lived to its full as well as the surrounding narrative of South Africa from the birth of apartheid, the rise of political opposition, the dawn of democracy, right through to the crisis we are experiencing today.
