Former Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court Arthur Chaskalson listens on during the launch of The Strange Alchemy of Life and Law, a book by his colleague former Constitutional Court Judge, Arthur Chaskalson in October 2009 at the Constitution Hill in Johannesburg. “What inspired me to write this book was to share with the readers the actual passion and intellectual drama of being a judge, someone who is supposed to be a cold rational creature and abstracted from the world,” Sachs said.

 

 

The Constitution Hill members of staff perform a song in honour of former Constitutional Court Judge Albie Sachs during his farewell ceremony and launch of his new book The Strange Alchemy of Life and Law.  Situated at the Old Fort Prison complex, on the outskirts of Hillbrow, Constitution Hill is one of the oldest remaining buildings in the rapidly changing landscape of the city of Johannesburg. Virtually every important leader from Nelson Mandela, to Mahatma Gandhi and Albertina Sisulu as well as scores of ordinary South Africans caught up in the web of the apartheid regime, were been detained at Constitution Hill.
