Nelson Mandela Libri

Dopo una vita trascorsa ad annotare su carta pensieri e avvenimenti, sacrifici e vittorie, Nelson Mandela ha aperto il proprio archivio personale, che offre una visione senza precedenti della sua straordinaria esistenza. Io, Nelson Mandela svela ai lettori chi è l'uomo privato che si cela dietro il personaggio pubblico: dalle lettere scritte nelle ore più buie dei suoi ventisette anni di prigionia alla bozza del seguito di Lungo cammino verso la libertà, la sua autobiografia. Vediamo Mandela prendere appunti e scarabocchiare durante le riunioni, trascrivere sogni tormentati sul calendario da tavolo nella sua cella a Robben Island, tenere un diario mentre in fuga durante le lotte antiapartheid dei primi anni Sessanta, chiacchierare con gli amici in quasi settanta ore di conversazioni registrate. Un ritratto intimo che offre ai lettori la rara possibilità di trascorrere del tempo con l'uomo Nelson Mandela, ascoltando in presa diretta la sua voce: schietta, limpida, privata.

"Il mio più profondo desiderio è che in Africa la voce del cantastorie possa non morire mai". In questa antologia, Nelson Mandela raccoglie il meglio dell'immaginario fiabesco africano, presentando storie antiche e nuove che riflettono secoli di tradizioni. Tra i protagonisti ci sono la lepre, il furbo sciacallo, la iena, il leone e il serpente, ognuno con il proprio ruolo unico nel racconto. Le storie esplorano temi di inganno, potere, paura e virtù, con incantesimi che portano sventura o salvezza e figure inquietanti come i cannibali. L'universo di uomini e animali dell'Africa è rappresentato attraverso la sua generosa umanità e l'istintiva disponibilità al sorriso, catturato nei colori vividi, nel sole accecante e nella foschia blu delle montagne. All'orizzonte, si scorge il sollievo offerto dall'acqua e dalla vegetazione. Mandela definisce queste narrazioni "le mie storie più care", storie antiche quanto l'Africa stessa, narrate attorno ai falò da tempo immemorabile e universali nella loro capacità di ritrarre la magia umana e animale.

หนังสือ "วรรคทองของแมนเดลา" เล่มนี้ อาจจะไม่ใช่หนังสือเรื่องราวอัตชีวประวัติของ "แมนเดลา" เหมือนเล่มอื่นๆ แต่อย่างน้อยเราทุกคนคงคุ้นเคยและพอได้ยินชื่อของชายวัย 93 ปีคนนี้ หนังสือเล่มนี้สามารถให้แง่คิดดีๆ จากวาทะของท่านในทุกครั้งที่มีการพูดเกิดขึ้น วาทะที่ไม่ได้เกิดจากการสรรคำที่เลิศหรู หากแต่เป็นเพียงคำที่เรียบง่าย และเชื่อว่าน่าจะสร้างแรงบันดาลใจและข้อคิดดีๆ ให้แก่ผู้คนทั่วโลกได้อย่างมากมายมหาศาลเลยทีเดียว

Dare Not Linger is the remarkable story of Nelson Mandela's presidency told in his own words and those of distinguished South African writer Mandla Langa.

Tuto strhující autobiografii prvního černošského prezidenta Jihoafrické republiky, bojovníka proti rasové segregaci a držitele Nobelovy ceny míru Nelsona Mandely, zachycující období od jeho narození v roce 1918 až po první všerasové volby roku 1994, lze současně číst jako poutavé dějiny jihoafrického osvobozeneckého hnutí i celé moderní Jižní Afriky. Přestože kvůli svým názorům strávil celkem dvacet sedm let ve vězení a boji za svobodu byl nucen obětovat veškerý osobní život, Mandela vůči svým bílým utiskovatelům nezahořkl, nikdy neopustil myšlenku mezirasového smíru a zasadil se o pokojný přechod k vládě černošské většiny. Jeho vyprávění se čte jako detektivní román, vyznačuje se velkou otevřeností, nepostrádá smysl pro humor, paradox a ironii.

An unforgettable portrait of one of the most inspiring historical figures of the twentieth century, published on the centenary of his birth.
