About this listen

When a thoughtless tweet by Zelda la Grange unleashed a storm, she was asked: ‘Have you learnt nothing from Nelson Mandela?’ This book is her answer. For years, she was the closest witness of Mandela’s interactions with people both famous and ordinary, and here she draws out his lessons on humility, respect, honesty, how to truly listen and what to do if you realise you have made a grave mistake, a lesson she herself had to learn the hard way.

Great down-to-earth read. Zelda’s tales of life with Nelson Mandela—his witty banter and rock-solid dedication to unity—are pure gold. Her journey, from growing up in apartheid’s shadow to learning big lessons (like bouncing back from a silly tweet), is dead honest and inspiring. It’s a quick, easy read, inspiring book - crash course in empathy and understanding other points of view.
