Nadine Gordimer , winner of the Nobel Prize for literature and the Booker Prize, has lived through one of this century's dark ages - the age of South Africa's apartheid. Anthony Sampson , who himself reported on events in that country during those years, talks to the writer about her journey as a white South African, her developing awareness of political injustice and social inequality, and the way her imagination as a writer reflected events around her. With readings from some of her novels - including Burger's Daughter and July's People - Nadine Gordimer traces the twisting path which led to the release of Nelson Mandela and "the most extraordinary end" to this chapter of colonialism. Producer Richard Bannerman
