Head of the Nelson Mandela Foundation’s Memory Programme, Verne Harris, spoke recently on the subject “Madiba, Memory and the Work of Justice” at the 18th Alan Paton Lecture.
Harris has also recommended Hugh Lewin’s new book, Stones against the Mirror: Friendship in the Time of the South African Struggle, one of several new autobiographies and biographies about the South African struggle.
Lewin’s book is described as, "exemplary... offers a sustained reflection on memory and evidence, and confronts the inevitable fictional fashioning which informs any and every work of narrating the past."
