How to Be a Revolutionary (2022)
CA Davids
"C.A. Davids is one of South Africa's most innovative writers. In How to be a Revolutionary she has written a global novel which explores the hopes and disappointments of twentieth-century revolutions in a series of vivid portraits, one of which is a sensitively realised vision of Langston Hughes. How to be a Revolutionary is a novel that will interest anybody who has found out in his or her personal life how difficult--yet how necessary--it is to try to change the world."
