Mhudi
Sol T. Plaatje
An epic historical romance, Mhudi is the first novel in English to be written by a Black South African writer. Renowned as one of South Africa's most important literary works. Mhudi has witnessed the genocide of her tribe and survived.
After days of wandering the land, terrified of encountering enemy warriors, she is struck by a fear even worse than death; that she is now completely alone. Upon crossing paths with the tribe's only other known survivor, she finds herself at the centre of an extraordinary story about love, war, and unexpected allies. Writing in the early twentieth century, Sol T.
Plaatje weaves an incredible retelling of South Africa's history that refused to justify the colonialism of the period. 'More than a classic; there is just no other book on earth like it. All the stature and grandeur of the author are in it.' Bessie Head 'Plaatje [writes] some of the most compelling and celebrated accounts of the early days of apartheid.' Trevor Noah, New York Times 'One of the most remarkable books on Africa by one of the continent's most remarkable writers.' Neil Parsons
