Nelson Mandela recoge en esta magistral antología los cuentos más bellos y antiguos de África. Es una colección que ofrece un ramillete de entrañables relatos, pequeñas muestras de la valerosa esencia de África, que en muchos casos son también universales por el retrato que hacen de la humanidad, de los animales y de los seres fantásticos.«Está la liebre», observa Mandela en el prólogo, «una pilluela muy ingeniosa; la hiena, que es la perdedora de todas las historias; el león, el jefe de los animales y quien les da regalos; la serpiente, que inspira miedo y a la vez es el símbolo del poder sanador; hay también hechizos que pueden acarrear la desgracia o conceder la libertad...». Todos los cuentos, además, están maravillosamente ilustrados en color por 16 artistas africanos.

From his birth in a village on the banks of the Mbashe River in the Transkei to his politicisation and development as a freedom fighter, this first volume of Nelson Mandela's classic autobiography charts the early years of his life, which culminated in his prison sentence in 1962. Emotive, compelling and uplifting, Long Walk to Freedom: Volume 1 tells the beginnings of the story of an epic life, a story of hardship, resilience and ultimate triumph conveyed with the clarity and eloquence of the outstanding moral and political leader of the twentieth century.

The Triumph of Hope is part 2 of this two-volume edition of the best-selling autobiography by one of the greatest statesmen of the twentieth century
