DIEPSLOOT | ANTON HARBER IN JOHANNESBURG

Author: Anton Harber Publisher: Jonathan Ball () ISBN-10: ISBN-13: Condition: Very Good Binding: Softcover Pages: 231 Dimensions: 23.2 x 15.4 x 1.8 cm +++ by Anton Harber +++ Diepsloot is a microcosm - a post-apartheid settlement with about people crammed into five square miles, with more than its fair share of youth, foreigners and unemployed. Ask most people about Diepsloot and they will talk of vigilante justice, political unrest, poverty, unemployment, political protests and xenophobic violence - a haven for criminals and undocumented foreigners in the middle of one of the country's wealthiest areas.  This title takes you inside, walking the streets, meeting the people, probing the bitter local political battles, and asking what an area like Diepsloot portends for the future of South Africa.   A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers. The group started thirty years ago with one store in the quirky suburb of Yeoville and has grown through the years to a total of five shops, plus our online sales. Bookdealers is well-known for its collectable and used books. We also have a large variety of remaindered books sourced from around the world.  If you collect from one of our five branches there is no delivery charge. We also offer postal delivery (when available) and courier delivery, subject to a quote.
