About time

Vusi Mavimbela’s book, Time is Not the Measure: a memoir of jazz, freedom, espionage and political brinksmanship, (R325) is co-published with the Mutloatse Arts Heritage Trust. In his foreword, Albie Sachs says: “If it has one overarching motif, it is that long service in the struggle in itself carries no entitlement to either power, riches or fame. As the book’s title signals, this is a book about time. And it’s about time that this book appears.”
