In Meditations of a Non-White White, Allan Kolski Horwitz scrapes away superficial assumptions of post-apartheid South Africa with satire and brutal realism. This beguiling collection probes the limitations of middle-class norms and blinkered identities, and grapples with the diverse experiences of the many millions living on the margins of the country's privileged ghettoes. In sixteen expertly rendered stories, Horwitz brings to life a host of characters whose circumstances represent the complex legacies of apartheid and reconciliation, but are, in many respects, startlingly timeless and universal. A renowned educator and founder of the Botsotso art collective, Horwitz has his finger on the pulse of a changing nation and world.
