Dancing to a Different Rhythm recounts the fascinating life story of Zarina Maharaj, wife of struggle activist and former cabinet minister Mac Maharaj. Despite many volumes being written about South Africans involved in the struggle for democracy, few are first-hand accounts by the women who stood side by side with their men on the front lines.
This book chronicles the experiences of a remarkable woman who was prepared to sacrifice a conventional life and brilliant career in her quest for the freedom of her country, while raising a young family in foreign lands. The book, however, is not only about politics and life in exile, but also about an extraordinary love story that transcended severe hardship, long separations and political imprisonment.
Illustrated with never-before-seen photographs, this is a gripping and indispensable addition to struggle literature.
