July's People by Nadine Gordimer
4.0

An electrifying read, Nadine Gordimer encapsulates so perfectly a specific brand and time of whiteness and race relations in South Africa. Beyond the often uncomfortable reality of the time she’s writing in and for, the prose is magical, mystical and gripping in a way that I have only encountered in the words of South Africans.
