Description
Winnie and Nelson: Portrait of a Marriage by Jonny Steinberg is a deeply researched and moving account of Nelson Mandela's relationship with Winnie Madikizela-Mandela. Drawing on previously unseen material, Steinberg sheds light on the fractures and stubborn bonds at the heart of their volatile union. The marriage between two of South Africa's most prominent figures has been largely untold until now. Steinberg reveals how Nelson Mandela's years in prison shaped his idealised view of Winnie, while she struggled with her own politics and ambitions behind the scenes. This is a story of love, obsession, deceit, and revolution, set against the backdrop of South African history. Steinberg's masterful narrative turns this complex tale into a gripping pacey read, exploring the timeless questions that drove these forever entwined leaders: how far would they go for each other, and where did they draw the line?
