From the [1980] blurb: "Athol Fugard's first - and thus far only - novel, Tsotsi, is a discovery. Written in 1959-60 [when the author was 27] and when he was drafting his first success - the play The Blood Knot - this novel was bypassed as his work in theatre unfolded, and has remained in manuscript form until now."
