Eve Fairbanks’ The Inheritors tells the story of a country in the throes of a great reckoning through the lives of Dipuo, her daughter Malaika, and Christo — one of the last white South Africans drafted to fight for the apartheid regime.
Observing subtle truths about race and power that extend well beyond national borders, the book explores questions that preoccupy so many of us today: How can we let go of our pasts, as individuals and as countries? How should historical debts be paid? And how can a person live an honorable life in a society that they no longer recognize?
A dozen years in the making, the book takes exquisite look at what really happens when a country resolves to end white supremacy.
