Come join InZync for our first event of 2018 as we publish the long-awaited ConVerse, a collection that showcases some of the best new voices in South African poetry in translation, including Koleka Putuma, Jolyn Phillips, Sindiswa Busuku-Mathese, Nathan Trantraal and Mbongeni Nomkonwana. Original poems in Xhosa, Afrikaans and English stage courageous conversations dealing with death, desire, tradition and alienation. When these poems move through the cycles of translation, new meanings emerge and surprising connections are forged as the poems begin to speak in multiple tongues.
The evening will feature interlingual performances by various poets from the collection and we'll bring our distinct InZync flavour to the night. Don't miss out on what promises to be a border-crossing evening!
- Monday 5 March / / 20:30 / / Drostdy Theatre, Stellenbosch
- Entry is free and copies will be available on the night at R80
