Things That Are Silent
Bok av Rethabile Masilo
In his debut collection, Things That Are Silent, Rethabile Masilo has crafted poems that bear witness to seemingly unnoticed events. Whether it's a tribute to Sharpeville or an indictment of apartheid from a lover's tongue, Masilo's lyrical voice attests the fervent need to preserve memory from the quotidian crush of collective amnesia.
