The Song Remembers When?

Plot

In 1964, in a daring night-time escape, the author and her husband fled Johannesburg and slipped across the border under the eyes of the security police. Part of a shadowy group, the ARM, their acts of sabotage had enraged the apartheid regime. A tale of courage in the face of repression, "The Song Remembers When" sheds light on a little-documented corner of our history. It is also a carefully researched family history, and a vivid recollection of a South African childhood and youth, written with humour, grace and wisdom.
