"In Boksburg is the portrait of a small white South African Town. It is a most disturbing portrait of a town and its people which has become a symbol of white racism in South Africa. In many ways David Goldblatt's penetrating and personal look at life in this mining town near Johannesbrg [sic] was prophetic when he compiled this essay in 1981: only from the weird lifelessness, the sense of isolation and desolation which is so vividly clear in this portrait of a town, could have sprung the intense racism and hatred as demonstrated by the events following the municipal elections of 1988 when the inhabitants of Boksburg tried to turn back the clock to Verwoerdian times."--Book jacket.
