Synopsis: In this book, Antjie Krog, a South African journalist and poet who has covered the work of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, recounts the drama, the horrors, the wrenching personal stories of the victims and their families. Through the testimonies of victims of abuse and violence, from the appearance of Winnie Mandela to former South African president P.W. Botha's extraordinary courthouse press conference, this award-winning poet leads us on an amazing journey. Country of My Skull captures the complexity of the Truth Commission's work. Krog's powerful prose lures the reader actively and inventively through a mosaic of insights, impressions and secret themes. This compelling tale is Antjie Krog's profound literary account of the mending of a country that was in colossal need of change.
