Book Synopsis Loud and Yellow Laughter by : Sindiswa Busuku-Mathese
Download or read book Loud and Yellow Laughter written by Sindiswa Busuku-Mathese and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2016-12-23 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sindiswa Busuku-Matheses debut collection of poetry Loud and Yellow Laughter, published by Botsotso, was awarded the 2018 Ingrid Jonker prize for poetry. Busuku Matheses entry was described by one judge as completely original: the presentation of family history as a play, in which the narrator is an unreliable character. The poet was praised for the the mix of WW2 history, the narrators dilemmas about being adopted, and the way she manages to weave these together without ever losing her balance or falling into incongruity. Another judge highlighted how Busuku Matheses memoir in the form of a collage offers fragments in several voices, some of them reconstructed. [The collection] movingly reflects the quest of the The Girl Child, as intimate curator of family memory and experience, to integrate the surprising puzzle that is her current self. The original version of this collection was written as part of the poets Masters thesis in Creative Writing at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. A collection of 39 pieces, some mystical and elliptical, some seemingly mundane snatches of prose-poetry that retain a poetic intensity, together they create an atmosphere of nostalgia tinged with a subtle yet matter-of-fact sadness. Accompanied by a series of graphic images, made up of old photographic portraits and scenes of natural beauty.
Download or read book The Living Option written by Karen Solie and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Karen Solie won the Canadian Griffin Prize with only her third collection, Pigeon, in 2010, and has quickly established herself as one of the most distinctive and unsettling voices in Canadian poetry, a 'sublime singer of existential bewilderment'. Her poems are X-rays of our delusions and mistaken perceptions, explorations of violence, bad luck, fate, creeping catastrophe, love, desire, and the eros of danger, constantly exposing the fragility of the basis of trust on which modern humanity relies. They are double-edged, tense and tender, an edgy blend of irony and guts, of snarl and praise, of sharp intelligence and quizzical ambiguity. Poetry Book Society Recommendation.
Download or read book Modern and Normal written by Karen Solie and published by London, ON : Brick Books. This book was released on 2005 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evade your eye. Try to see as others do what is desired or refused. What went wrong. Or right, then wrong. Objectively, what hangs. Pull yourself together. Years are neither kind nor cruel. You drag on. The girl is gone. Consider that it might be time to call in a professional. Blood is fearless, runs to meet a touch, indiscriminate, remembering the first time it fell in love with the world, unaware that now you are alone. From "Mirror" In Modern and Normal, Karen Solie takes her on-the-road fascination with being between places to a new level, exploring conceptual and perceptual states of in-betweenness - for example, between what is perceived and what is actually there, or between and among the patterns the world repeats from the cell to the structure of the universe - to find points of intersection. Solie finds a middle ground between the discourses of the hard sciences and the intuitive, a realm of weird overlap wherein lie questions of probability, fate, determinism, chance, luck, and faith. She writes about fractals and physics, but also about bar bands, broken hearts, and the trappings of desire. Some splendid landscape poems celebrate nature while mourning the way in which it's often exploited and used. Once again Karen Solie offers readers her lovely dexterity and skill in poems which entertain as they move.

Book Synopsis Black Sunlight by : Dambudzo Marechera
Download or read book Black Sunlight written by Dambudzo Marechera and published by Apollo. This book was released on 2024-09-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dark and deeply radical novel, Dambudzo Marechera offers a visceral account of a photojournalist's entanglement with a terrorist organisation. In an unnamed totalitarian state, the members of Black Sunlight – a group of violent anarchists – are the only ones fighting for change and justice. As their actions push the country further towards chaos, journalist Christian records it all through the lens of his camera. Christian's life so far has been one of immense struggle and alienation. So when he becomes tangled in the Black Sunlight uprising, he is determined to remain a bystander and nothing more; to capture their actions without praise or condemnation. In evocative flashes of sex, violence, war, and myth, Christian's story explodes in a labyrinthine plot, told through a chaotic stream-of-consciousness that mirrors the nation's crumbling climate. Black Sunlight is a piercing insight into the darkness of the human psyche and a raw examination of a nation in battle against itself – where everything political turns deeply personal. 'Complex, challenging – and uniquely potent.' Guardian 'A writer in constant quest for his real self.' Wole Soyinka.

Book Synopsis Sehlare Gola Re Go Dule Morithi by : Thuledi Makua
Download or read book Sehlare Gola Re Go Dule Morithi written by Thuledi Makua and published by Xlibris UK. This book was released on 2018-04 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Makua immigrated into Central and Southern Africa during the thrust of the southward Bantu migration between AD 100 and AD 400. The South African Makua population are centering on the present Mpumalanga and Limpopo provinces. According to Batilo et al. (1997, p. 25), This location coincides with the area in which the origins of Sotho-Tswana culture is presumed to have emanated before their migrations around 1300 to the Vaal area and later to their present habitats. The intention of this book is to trace the descendants of Makua in South Africa. The focus of this book is on the descendants of Sehlare Makua. Though this book is still in the process of searching most of his descendants. A considerable amount of discoveries through annual Makua reunions have been made with regard to his descendants. The researcher is still studying who his grandparents, parents, siblings, wives, and children were. In the next edition of this book (which will be the fourth edition), the researcher intends to study Sehlare Makuas other wives and their descendants and Letlakanas brothers and their wives and their descendants. At the end, every Sehlare Makuas descendant shall be invited to come forward and appear among the pages of this book. Currently, Makua in South Africa is subdivided into Makua Segawane, Makua Segafa, Makua Hlabane, Makua Ledimo, and Makua Swaedi. This does not mean that there are many different Makua in the country, but these subdivisions emerged as they were naming each other according to their cultural and social activities.
