Mandala J. Radebe has written the first, full account of the South African revolutionary, Jabulani Nobleman •Mzala? Nxumalo. Intimate and analytical, this powerful and searching biography of one of the liberation movement?s chief critical thinkers, writer and constant questioner, The Lost Prince of the ANC traces Mzala?s life from birth to his untimely death in London in 1991, at the age of 35. Radebe?s insightful life of Mzala, is the story too, of the radical tradition of the liberation movement, which flourished during its underground days. This revolutionary book, of an intellectual who had much to offer the post-apartheid South Africa, does more than fill a gap in our history: its insight opens a door for the reader to imagine politics and society anew.
