*** THIS BOOK IS MISSING, PLEASE DO NOT ORDER YET *** Book in a poor condition due to stain of long ago water in top right side of pages - Still very readable though - Same edition Google image used. >>> As startling and powerful as when first published, André Brink's classic novel, is an unflinching and unforgettable look at racial intolerance, the human condition, and the heavy price of morality. - Ben Du Toit is a white schoolteacher in suburban Johannesburg in a dark time of intolerance and state-sanctioned apartheid. A simple, apolitical man, he believes in the essential fairness of the South African government and its policiesuntil the sudden arrest and subsequent "suicide" of a black janitor from Du Toit's school. Haunted by new questions and desperate to believe that the man's death was a tragic accident, Du Toit undertakes an investigation into the terrible affaira quest for the truth that will have devastating consequences for the teacher and his family, as it draws him into a lethal morass of lies, corruption, and murder.
