The Fox and the flies: The world of Joseph Silver Racketeer & Psychopath - Charles van Onselen
R365,00
At the end of the nineteenth century European pimps and 'white slavers' established a hugely successful global market for commercial sex. Criminal syndicates from Buenos Aires to London and from Cape Town to New York were able to organise the seduction or rape of women in under-developed parts of Europe and their 'export' as prostitutes to meet an insatiable demand for sexual services. For three turbulent decades before the First World War, Joseph Silver - brothel-owner, pimp and trafficker in women on four continents - was central to this hidden world of betrayal, intrigue, lust and sexual slavery. Burglar, gun-runner, jewel-thief, rapist, safe-cracker and sodomist, Silver's notoriety was captured in the most confidential correspondence of a dozen countries in the western world. What those in charge of law-enforcement agencies kept to themselves, however, was how their officers had attempted to use Silver as an informer to infiltrate syndicates built on 'vice', only to have him outwit them as he moved in the dangerous space between police and prostitutes. A disturbed adolescent, youthful predator and adult misogynist driven by dark biblical and medieval obsessions, Silver's mental universe remained largely hidden from his family, other gangsters and police handlers. In this first reconstruction of the life of a dangerous psychopath, Charles van Onselen situates the private life of one man amidst the demi-monde of the Atlantic world to identify the most infamous serial killer of all time - for Joseph Silver's darkest secret of all lay in London, in Whitechapel, in the autumn of 1888.

Mike and Phoebe, the die hard Rhodie and the hard-nosed hooker, meet in the squalor of Beira. They know instinctively that they are right for one another, but with so many outside forces playing on their lives, will their love ever be requited? Cyclone Blues - set in present-day Zimbabwe and Mozambique, both still suffering from the aftermath of civil war - is the story of love across the color bar, murder, vengeance and forgiveness. The plot whirls with surprises and revelations and is used as a means of investigating the more profound matters of interracial relations and attitudes and the problems of a troubled southern Africa. A beautiful love story and an historical tour de force.

Stiffed - Susan Faludi
R200,00
With the publication of BACKLASH, Susan Faludi became a world-renowned authority on the gender war, and 'backlash' in the gender sense became a household word. STIFFED picks up where BACKLASH left off. It seeks to understand male behavior in order to close the chasm between the sexes, and asks the all-important question - why? Why are men so fear ful of women's independence? Why is a little liberation seen as too mu ch? What is it that men really fear, and why? The author shows that we should really focus on The Man Question; at the end of the millennium, it is men who are in crisis. She argues that we are all at the mercy of social forces distorting our lives. She takes us from the shuttered shipyards to the mass lay-offs of the defence industries, from Hollywood action heroes to gang-torn streets, from militia men to Promise Keepe rs, praying husbands to male porn actors. Faludi explores the economic , cultural and political roots of the crisis, unpacks the media messag es sent to men in the last twenty-five years, and charts new territory for male-female relations in the twenty-first century.

Stones against the mirror - Hugh Lewin
R150,00
A brave and moving memoir which is both a family history and a story of friendship and betrayal between people caught up in the wrenching forces of the South African Struggle. It is framed as a journey between two railway stations. The departure is from Park station Johannesburg and the destination is York station in Britain. It is an actual journey and the arrival at York is a real event, but it is also a symbolic journey in which Lewin describes his progress towards a meeting with Adrian Leftwich, the man who betrayed him to the Security Police in 1964. Park station is the point of departure because it was the site in 1964 of the station bomb planted by John Harris who was associated with the cell in which Lewin operated. The book therefore has a quest structure. After 40 years, Lewin is determined to meet with his long-term friend Leftwich both to find out what happened at his trial and to deal with the emotions of anger and bitterness that have assailed him ever since. Lewin’s subject is the culpability of betrayal.

Humphrey Gibbs Beleaguered Governor Southern Rhodesia, 1929-69 - Alan Megahey
Humphrey Gibbs was born into an Edwardian upper-class family in 1902. After Eton and Cambridge he emigrated in 1928 to Southern Africa, eventually deciding to farm in Southern Rhodesia. He was a prominent churchman, and was active in organizing the country's farmers. He promoted conservation before it was fashionable to do so. A reluctant MP, he welcomed the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland, and supported the cause of multiracialism. Gibbs became Governor of Southern Rhodesia in 1959, and six years later was faced with the problem of UDI. He remained at Government House and was a conduit between the British government and the rebel regime, stepping down only after the country declared itself a republic. In retirement he watched civil war ravage the country he loved and he welcomed its evolution into Zimbabwe. He left his farm only when the dissident troubles in Matabeleland became too severe. His funeral took place in Harare Catherdral in November 1990.

Sam Jonah and the Remaking of Ashanti - A A Taylor
R250,00
Sam Jonah and the remaking of Ashanti recounts the inspirational life of one of Africa's most prominent black businessmen. From working underground as a shovel boy to his appointment as the CEO of the trailblazing African gold mining company, Ashanti Goldfields Corporation, Sam Jonah's determination to surmount every obstacle in a career strewn with hurdles makes for compelling reading. Frenzied deals, boardroom cliffhangers, political scandal and private battles punctuate this unique account of the challenges of conducting 'First World' business in the 'Third World'. Through Jonah's corporate leadership we explore the paradox that a continent so richly endowed with gold and other minerals should find itself in such dire poverty. It is a hopeful story about breaking the confines of one's circumstances, not just for Africans but for individuals the world over.

Vereeniging: Die onvoltooide vrede - Leon Wessels
R160,00
In die boek Some Afrikaners Revisited van David Goldblatt, is daar 'n foto van 'n berede jong Afrikaner, geneem by 'n Nasionale Party-viering in 1964. Daardie jong man was in 1990 die eerste lid van die NP-regering wat verskoning vir apartheid gevra het, en in November 2009 het hy uitgetree as Menseregtekommissaris. Watter pad het hom tot hier gelei? En watter pad het Suid-Afrika in dieselfde tyd geloop? Wessels vertel pakkend van die groot politieke veranderings wat hy beleef het, as minister in die laaste apartheidskabinet, as grondwetonderhandelaar en menseregte-kommissaris. Maar dis 'n groter verhaal wat hy vertel. "Dit maak my vies wanneer apartheid die skuld kry vir alles wat skeef loop," se hy. "Dit maak my net so vies wanneer mense maak asof apartheid geen impak het op hedendaagse vraagstukke nie." Met sy vertrekpunt dat die nuwe Suid-Afrika se grondwet op die aandrang van Nelson Mandela by Vereeninging onderteken is, waar ook die Vrede onderteken is wat die Unie tot stand gebring het, vra hy die vraag hoe ver ons op die weg van vereniging gevorder het. Hy beantwoord dit aan die hand van vyf groot temas: die regstaat, menseregte, rassisme, versoening, en armoede. Wessels, wat 'n ver pad gekom het sedert sy berede dae, praat oorredend en met ontwapenende eerlikheid oor nasionale en eie dwalings.
