内容简介

Award-winning journalist Alec Russell was in South Africa to witness the fall of apartheid and the remarkable reconciliation of Nelson Mandelas rule; and returned in 2007-2008 to see Mandelas successor, Thabo Mbeki, fritter away the countrys reputation. South Africa is now perched on a precipice, as it prepares to elect Jacob Zuma as presidentsignaling a potential slide back to the bad old days of post-colonial African leadership, and disaster for a country that was once the beacon of the continent. Drawing on his long relationships with all the key senior figures including Mandela, Mbeki, Desmond Tutu, and Zuma, and a host of South Africans he has known over the yearsincluding former activists turned billionaires and reactionary BoersAlec Russells Bring Me My Machine Gun is a beautifully told and expertly researched account of South Africas great tragedy: the tragedy of hope unfulfilled.
