A review by yarahossam
A Dry White Season by André Brink

3.0

I am too immersed in what happened in Soweto to give an actual feedback about the main character's decolonized perspective. I appreciate the amazing writing which viewed Ben Du Toit's greatly deconstructed approach towards the extreme annexed thought that has been implanted into the whites' minds ever since the dawn of day. Its a euphoric struggle to be in the right and not having anyone see it except years later. Everyone is against him and its unbearable.
The book is dry somewhat though.
