*The deeply moving memoir of the Slovo family which also encompasses much of the story of the Apartheid years.

"Although 'Every Secret Thing' is so intensely personal, it incidentally illuminates the final phase of the Struggle more clearly than many books written with that intent. If it doesn't become one of 1997's best-sellers, we can only deduce the reading public has lost its marbles."

Dervla Murphy, Literary Review, February

"Weaving the personal and political tightly together, novelist Slovo creates an incisive and unflinching portrait of her prominent South African family....She has covered some of this ground before in fiction, but what she discovered and recounts here has a strangeness and piquancy quite beyond her fictive powers. Not only does she track down and confront one of the men responsible for her mother's death..., she also movingly details the pain and the pride she felt growing up in such strange, terrible times."

Kirkus, 03/01/1997
