First British sodtcover edition published by Corvo Books, 2006.
Who Killed Mr Drum? is an honouring of the black journalists who today have become heroes in their own land. It is part murder mystery, but more an elegy, to the talented and distinguished black journalists that wrote for South Africa's famous Drum Magazine in the 1950s. Described by the author, Sylvester Stein, who was the editor in the late 1950s, as 'an historical caprice', it tells not so much of who actually killed Mr Drum but more of the effects the constraints and circumstances of those harsh apartheid years that eventually wiped out all those brave and spirited writers. An inditement against a bigoted and vicious regime.
