Description
Winnie and Nelson: Portrait of a Marriage by Jonny Steinberg A deeply researched and profoundly moving account of Nelson Mandela's relationship with Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, drawing on never-before-seen material. Steinberg reveals the fractures and stubborn bonds at the heart of a volatile and groundbreaking union, one that played out on the world stage. This book tells the tale of a unique marriage, its longings, obsessions, and deceits, turning the course of South African history into a page-turning political biography. Steinberg explores how far these forever entwined leaders would go for one another, and where they drew the line, in a story that is both a Shakespearean drama and a modern epic.
