Summary

Mandela fue condenado a cadena perpetua en 1962. Tenía 44 años y pasaría 27 entre rejas, 18 de ellos en el tristemente famoso penal de Robben Island, donde los presos eran sometidos a un trato inmisericorde. Nunca flaqueó, jamás perdió la dignidad: ni renunció a sus principios ni permitió que la sinrazón lo envileciera. Durante los 10.052 días de cautiverio escribió cientos de cartas. En ellas reclama derechos a funcionarios inclementes; insta a proseguir el combate; consuela y aconseja… Las 255 cartas aquí reunidas componen el retrato más completo del héroe que encabezó la liberación de su pueblo y del individuo entrañable que asomaba tras la figura pública, pero son también un documento que refleja como ningún otro la perspectiva humana de un episodio único en la historia contemporánea.

In 1962, Nelson Mandela was sentenced to life in prison and wrote hundreds of fiercely political letters during that time. The 255 letters collected here provide a comprehensive look at this figure and his place in contemporary history.
