An inspiring international bestseller, Good Morning, Mr Mandela tells the story of Zelda la Grange`s incredible friendship with Nelson Mandela. Zelda la Grange grew up in South Africa as a white Afrikaner who supported the rules of segregation. Yet just a few years after the end of Apartheid she would become a most trusted assistant to Nelson Mandela, growing to respect & cherish the man she had been taught was the enemy. Good Morning, Mr Mandela tells the extraordinary story of how a young woman had her life, beliefs, prejudices & everything she once believed in utterly transformed by the greatest man of her time. It is the incredible journey of an awkward, terrified young typist in her twenties later chosen to become the President`s most loyal & devoted servants, spending most of her adult working life travelling with, supporting & caring for the man she would come to call ` Khulu`, or `grandfather`. Here Zelda la Grange pays tribute to Nelson Mandela as she knew him
- a teacher who gave her the most valuable lessons of her life. A man who refused to be defined by his past, who forgave & respected all, but who was also frank, teasing & direct. As he renewed his country, he also freed Zelda from a closed world of fear & mistrust, giving her life true meaning. Now she shares his lasting & inspiring gifts with the world. This is a book about love & second chances. It will touch your life & make you believe that every one of us, no matter who we are or what we have done, has the power to change. ” Uplifting...generally charming, occasionally faintly indiscreet, but always reverent. Surely no one but Mandela
- with the possible exception of the Duke of Edinburgh
- could have got away with greeting the Queen with a cheery: ` Oh Elizabeth, you`ve lost weight!” (Sunday Times). ” Compelling & ultimately heartbreaking...her unguarded honesty allows her to tell a remarkable story.” (Telegraph).
