Breyten Breytenbach writes about being an Afrikaner. His poetry was taught in schools and his paintings greatly admired, but in 1975 Breytenbach, living in self-imposed exile in Paris with his Vietnamese wife Yolande - their marriage was regarded as 'fornication' under South African law - decided to return to his native country under a false passport, with the intention of recruiting workers against the Government and its policy of apartheid. Breytenbach was betrayed, arrested and sentenced to nine years. This year, two versions of his horrific experience of South African jails are to be published - 'Mouroir', a surreal account of his life in prison, and 'True Confessions of an Albino Terrorist'. Tonight Arena presents the story of this extraordinary man including some of the poetry and paintings completed in prison and smuggled out of South Africa.
