What was the title of Nelson Mandela’s 2010 book of prison letters and reflections?

Nelson Mandela’s 2010 book of prison letters and reflections is titled Conversations with Myself.

The book was assembled from letters, diaries, notebooks, recorded conversations, and other personal material spanning Mandela’s life. It offers a more private perspective than his autobiography, Long Walk to Freedom.

Many of the documents were written during imprisonment, including letters to family members and political reflections. The collection also includes material from his later years, allowing readers to compare Mandela’s private thoughts with the public image created by speeches and official statements.

The title can cause confusion with Mandela’s autobiography or with collections of his speeches. Conversations with Myself is an edited documentary collection rather than a conventional chronological autobiography. It was published in 2010, three years before Mandela died.
