his literature was like a candle in the wind that served to give hope against the monster that was Apartheid.

Apparently he died on a flight back to RSA from Europe....has to have been a bit grim.

I actually haven't. I read a few of Coetzee and Gordimer's works, but never Brink. Is there one you would recommend, I'm just about through with the latest Conn Iggulden on the War of the Roses.
