Exclusive Books and Jonathan Ball Publishers invite you to the launch of The Plot to Save South Africa: Chris Hani’s Murder and the Week Nelson Mandela Averted Civil War by Justice Malala.

Malala will be in conversation with the editor-in-chief of City Press, Mondli Makhanya.

On the 30th anniversary of Hani’s death, this book tells us just how close South Africa came to civil war and how Mandela and De Klerk – despite provocation and despite their own fears, failures and doubts – chose the path of peace.

Justice Malala is one of South Africa’s foremost political commentators and the author of the #1 bestseller We Have Now Begun Our Descent: How to Stop South Africa Losing its Way. He is a weekly columnist for TimesLive and Business Day and his work has also appeared in The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, and Financial Times among others. Malala lives in New York.
