Wide-ranging and engaging, Selves in Question considers the various ways in which auto/biographical accounts situate and question the self in contemporary southern Africa.The twenty-seven interviews presented here consider both the ontological status and the representation of the self. They remind us that the self is constantly under construction in webs of interlocution and that its status and representation are always in question. The contributors, therefore, look at ways in which auto/biographical practices contribute to placing, understanding, and troubling the self and selves in postcolonies in the current global constellation. They examine topics such as the contexts conducive to production processes; the contents and forms of auto/biographical accounts; and finally, their impact on the producers and the audience. In doing so they map out a multitude of variables--including the specific historical juncture, geo-political locations, social positions, cultures, languages, generations, and genders--in their relations to auto/biographical practices. Those interviewed include the famous and the hardly known, women and men, writers and performers who communicate in a variety of languages: Afrikaans, English, Xhosa, isiZulu, Sesotho, and Yiddish. An extensive introduction offers a general framework on the contestation of self through auto/biography, a historical overview of auto/biographical representation in South Africa up to the present time, an outline of theoretical and thematic issues at stake in southern Africa auto/biography, and extensive primary and secondary biographies.

In an unusual merging of academic and literary practices, this volume attempts to identify a form (or forms) that is congenial with the subject of interrogation: the world in transition, with South Africa as the main focal point. Approaching anthropology from the position of the literary writer, Oscar Hemer here takes the reader through a kaleidoscope of perspectives—a stream-of-consciousness understanding of “writing the city” of Johannesburg, embedding ethnography in subjectivity; a challenge to binaries both temporal and gendered in examining the growth of the IT metropolis Bangalore to a combusting mega-city; an auto-ethnographic interweaving of fictional reportage with a close-reading of anthropological and philosophical treatises, including Mary Douglas’s Purity and Danger and Edouard Glissant’s Poetics of Relation, among others—to interrogate themes of transition, identity, purity and variation in the Western Cape. As the form transcends boundaries to create a methodological hybrid, creolization comes to the fore as a theoretical concept and as cultural practice.

In 1965, South African apartheid was in its heyday: the ANC had been smashed, and the architect of the racial system, Hendrik Verwoerd, was the country's aggressive Prime Minister. Demitrios Tsafendas, as a Coloured, a person of mixed race, should never have been allowed inside the whites-only Parliament Building in Pretoria, let alone so close to the Nationalist leader. Two blows with a knife was all it took. Tsafendas told the police that a tapeworm in his stomach had ordered the killing. He spent the rest of his days in prisons and mental hospitals, dying in late 1999. Henk van Woerden has made of this infinitely sad man's life a fable of racial madness, confusion and loss. Born of a Greek father and an African mother in colonial Mozambique, in his earliest childhood Tsafendas thought he was white, but when his father abandoned him he discovered that he was in some ambiguous category, unwanted, a lesser being. For the next four decades he travelled the world searching for something that would make him whole, wracked by mental illness, rejected and shunned by family and society alike. The author recreates the atmosphere of Tsafendas's wasted years meticulously, using the techniques of the novelist and the investigative journalist. This is a very powerful book, and in the English version by Dan Jacobson it has a simplicity and force reminiscent of the greatest non-fiction narratives.
