{"product_id":"9781770105409","title":"Conversations with a Gentle Soul","description":"\u003cp\u003eWithout much fanfare Ahmed Kathrada worked alongside Nelson Mandela, Walter Sisulu and other giants in the struggle to end racial discrimination in South Africa. He faced house arrest and many court trials related to his activism until, finally, a trial for sabotage saw him sentenced to life imprisonment alongside Mandela and six others.\u003cbr\u003eConversations with a Gentle Soul has its origins in a series of discussions between Kathrada and Sahm Venter about his opinions, encounters and experiences. Throughout his life, Kathrada has refused to hang on to negative emotions such as hatred and bitterness. Instead, he radiates contentment and the openness of a man at peace with himself. His wisdom is packaged within layers of optimism, mischievousness and humour, and he provides insights that are of value to all South Africans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Ahmed+Kathrada\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eAhmed Kathrada\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Sahm+Venter\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eSahm Venter\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ahmed Kathrada,Sahm Venter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47375836840099,"sku":"9781770105409","price":190.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781770105409_48a83823-017c-4f53-82c7-e7a25109d35f.jpg?v=1776571548","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781770105409","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
