My People by Credo Mutwa is an important and thought-provoking South African title that blends oral history, folklore, spirituality and cultural memory. Written by renowned traditional healer and storyteller Credo Vusamazulu Mutwa, this work records traditions and beliefs of the Zulu people and wider southern African communities during a period when much indigenous knowledge remained undocumented in print.
This 1971 Penguin Books paperback edition of My People is highly collectible, especially in South Africa where Mutwa's works continue to attract interest from collectors of Africana, anthropology, indigenous knowledge, cultural studies and South African history. An increasingly desirable title for readers seeking uncommon perspectives on African identity and heritage.
A notable addition to any Africana collection, Penguin paperback library or shelf of rare South African non-fiction.
