Tatamkhulu Afrika was born Mohamed Fu'ad Nasif in Egypt to an Egyptian father and a Turkish mother, and came to South Africa as a very young child. Both his parents died of flu, and he was fostered by family friends under the name John Charlton. He fought in World War II in the North African Campaign and was captured at Tobruk, his experiences. In this regard, Tatamkhulu Afrika’s Bitter Eden (Picador), which is set in a series of WWII POW camps, fits the mold. But this autobiographical novel—first published in , when Afrika was 82—also reshapes the mold by incorporating the subject of art. Afrika died shortly after Bitter Eden’s publication. Bitter Eden is based on Tatamkhulu Afrika's own capture in North Africa and his experiences as a prisoner of war during World War II in Italy and Germany. This frank and beautifully wrought novel deals with three men who must negotiate the emotions that are brought to the surface by the physical closeness of survival in the male-only camps.
