The Penguin Dictionary of South Africa Quotations
No Customer Reviews
More than a decade after the best-selling Penguin Dictionary of South African Quotations, Jennifer Crwys-Williams has compiled a completely revised and updated collection of quotations by and from South Africans. This new book is a wonderful complementary volume to the first and second editions in the Penguin reference library. In this new collection, Crwys-Williams has included all the Zuma drama, from the court cases to the rape allegations, from corruption to his sacking as the country's deputy president. She includes the country's HIV policies, from the denialists to the activists, the politicised and often turbulent arena of South African sport, and other newsworthy events that have made ripples in the media over the last decade or so. From politicians to journalists, spokespersons to experts, from entertainers and media personalities to those who have much to say and those who can say it all in a few succinct words, Crwys-Williams captures a multitude of opinions and views that provide a multifaceted representation of South Africans. Arranged according to subject and with an index of names, this reference guide is invaluable to anyone seeking an insight into how South Africans view themselves and the world.
