Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

A Dry White Season (Afrikaans: ’n Droë wit seisoen) is a novel written by Afrikaner novelist André Brink and first published by Taurus in 1979. The title quotes a line from the struggle poem For Don M. - Banned by Mongane Wally Serote. The novel focuses on the death during detention of a man wrongly suspected of being a black activist. The novel challenges apartheid, depicting the transformation of a ruling class Afrikaner's opposition to the governing white supremacist regime. The novel was initially banned in South Africa, though Brink had managed to get 3,000 copies published through an underground press. The novel was adapted into a 1989 film which starred Donald Sutherland, Zakes Mokae and Susan Sarandon. The film was subsequently banned in South Africa.
