Interesting to anybody with an interest in South Africa, but very badly arranged. Collection of brief excerpts, some as short as a single sentence.

L'ancien président de l'Afrique du Sud a sorti, en 2010, "Conversations avec moi- même", préfacé par Barack Obama. After finishing this book, I feel like I didn't really learn much about Mandela the person. The organization was also a little spotty, and the publishers made it seem like a longer read than it really is by putting images of Mandela's letters after each section (which you don't really have much of a need to read, seeing as you've just read it). 2/5 for interesting source material direct from Mandela, but marks off for assuming your reader already knows quite a bit about who Mandela really was.
Conversations with Myself isn't so much a book as a literary album, containing snippets of Mandela's life, shards from diaries, calendars, letters, and also transcripts from 50 hours of recordings by Richard Stengel, who ghosted Mandela's autobiography Long Walk to Freedom (and is now editor of Time magazine). It also contains passages from an autobiography Mandela had been working on himself, in moments snatched here and there, but has finally abandoned, and allowed to be folded into this volume. If that all sounds somewhat scattershot and untidy, oddly it's not. The book is intensely moving, raw and unmediated, told in real time with all the changes in perspective that brings, over the years, mixing the prosaic with the momentous. Health concerns, dreams, political initiatives spill out together, to provide the fullest picture yet of Mandela. PrijzenOnderscheidingenErelijsten
