Over dit e-boek
South African novelist Sol T Plaatje (1876–1932) was a pioneer in the
fight against racism in his country. He labored as a political activist
to advance governmental reforms and promote civil rights for oppressed
blacks. His Mhudi, penned in 1919–20 but published in 1930, represents
the first full-length novel in English by a black South African writer.
Today regarded as a classic for its skillful utilization of the African
oral narrative and its robust validation of the positive qualities of
African customs, the story of Mhudi, the harvester, and her romance with
birdman Ra-Thaga is set during the country’s cataclysmic wars of
possession of the 1830s. Plaatje’s heroine, Mhudi, is an enduring symbol
of resilience of spirit and the belief in a new day.
