"Chris Minaar is a distinguished South African writer who has lost his gift for the word--that is, until he loses Rachel, the last great love of his life. BEFORE I FORGET is Chris's final creative act. It is an assembly of all the beautiful and ugly pieces of his existence, defined by the women he has loved. There have been brief affairs, extended relationships, and a tragically ended marriage, all of which have left their indelible marks. Erotic, candid, and elegiac, this is the history of a man's life set against the history of a nation and, more than anything, it is a rich tribute to the beauty and power of love."

"Peter Carey, Garcia Marquez, Solzhenitsyn: Andre Brink must be considered with that class of writer."--Guardian.
