The Garden and the Jungle

“Insistently historical, geopolitically capacious, Edwy Plenel’s The Garden and the Jungle is bracing. It insists that we take a step back so that we face, without flinching, the truth of our world. Because it is only in so doing that we can undo the ugliness that has for too long marred human existence.” —Grant Farred, author of The Perversity of Gratitude: An Apartheid Education and Grievance: In Fragments
