Marion Spargo reviews her newly published memoir ‘Guilty and Proud’, which is said to be an ‘MK Soldier's Memoir of Exile, Prison and Freedom’. In this book the author, Sparg traces not only her experience in MK – often as the only woman in training camps in Angola – and her friendship with Chris Hani, Joe Slovo and Thabo Mbeki, but also her secret return to South Africa, the three police-station bombs, her sudden arrest and years of imprisonment.
