Review:
"Excellent...[a] harrowing and surprising story. The ultimate power of the book comes from an authoritative meditation on the traps that open up for someone who answers to himself before society" (Scotsman)
"The revolt of the reasonable...far more deadly than any amount of shouting from the housetops" (Guardian)
"Impossible to recommend too highly" (Time Out)
"Books like this one succeed...in drawing our emotions into politics. What will remain is the plain bravery of his characters...their struggle has found an honest chronicler" (Daily Telegraph)
"Andre Brink's writing is built on conviction...A Dry White Season describes the triumph of tyranny" (The Times)
