Description
When affairs of State battle affairs of the heart, ordinary people become heroes!
This critically acclaimed novel is set in 1976 apartheid South Africa. It tells of the courage of love across the color divide – especially in the face of an unyielding racist police state, and the extreme lengths a man and a woman must go to remain together.
When Stanwell Marunda, a proud descendant of the Zulu, meets the beautiful Elsa, the daughter of a white farmer, he is certain his bad luck has just begun. She has just rescued him, bloodied and hurt, from a car wreck.
As the two of them recklessly begin an intense affair, Stanwell hopes his deepest fears are not realized. First, he must recover from his injuries. This forces him to depend on her. Then he gets a surprise visit from the state’s security branch, the obsessive and brutal Malan Zander.
Secrets and suspicion begin to follow him. As intimidation and adversity strike his friends and loved one, Stanwell is forced to confront the frightening truth…
Is Elsa really the girl of his dreams – or could their forbidden affair be fatal?
The Zebra Affaire is a cautionary tale, a gripping story of a forbidden love story that shocked a nation – and the cruel powers used by an intolerant regime determined to stop it.
Described as a contemporary Romeo &Juliet meets To Kill A Mockingbird in Out of Africa, 'The Zebra Affaire' is a thrilling fusion of passion and suspense—laced with rich South African history. Reviewers rave about this intimate, yet dangerous love story; that’s set against a literary canvas that is both vividly authentic and powerfully provocative, both politically and socially.
