Description
"Two years ago Michiel le Roux threw caution to the wind and quit his lucrative job at an investment bank to follow a dream. He volunteered for Cope, the fledgling party that, with less than six months to go before the 2009 general election, took on the continent's oldest liberation movement, the ANC. And so begins his crash course in politics, a wild ride of rallies and road trips, of blind optimism and bitter disillusionment. In a party paralysed by a lack of funds, administrative ineptitude and power struggles, Le Roux quickly loses his political innocence. Funny poignant and devastatingly honest, this warts-and-all take on Cope also offers caustic comment on the state the party finds itself in today"--P. 4 of cover.
