As startling and powerful as when first published more than two decades ago， André Brink s classic novel， A Dry White Season， is an unflinching and unforgettable look at racial intolerance， the human condition， and the heavy price of morality. Ben Du Toit is a white schoolteacher in suburban Johannesburg in a dark time of intolerance and state-sanctioned apartheid. A simple， apolitical man， he believes in the essential fairness of the South African government and its policies—until the sudden arrest and subsequent "suicide" of a black janitor from Du Toit s school. Haunted by new questions and desperate to believe that the man s death was a tragic accident， Du Toit undertakes an investigation into the terrible affair—a quest for the truth that will have devastating consequences for the teacher and his family， as it draws him into a lethal morass of lies， corruption， and murder.
