Description
Scatterling of Africa: My Early Years is the origin story behind Johnny Clegg's successful music career. Born to an unconventional mother and grandson of Jewish immigrants, Clegg recounts how he came to realise that identity can be a choice, and home is a place you leave and return to as surely as the seasons change.
This memoir takes readers on a journey through Clegg's early years, from hearing Zulu street music outside a café in Johannesburg to developing his own unique sound. With its cross-cultural celebration of music, language, story, dance and song, Scatterling of Africa is a story that resonated with millions across the world during turbulent times.
Through his experiences, Clegg sheds light on how his family's history shaped him and influenced his music. This is a personal and reflective account of how he found his place in the world and created something truly special.
