I have a poem in the latest issue of New Contrast, launched last week. Issue 211 is a beauty, with tributes to #ZoeWicomb and #DianaFerrus. I'm honored to be a co-contributor with #DamonGalgut.

Zoë Wicomb 1948-2025. RIP. The late flowering of Zoë's work, from David's Story (2000) to Still Life (2020), is astonishing. I can't think of a contemporary writer more worthy of careful and repeated reading. #ZoëWicomb

This is incredibly useful and I will learn from it. Thank you. One author I really admire is #ZoëWicomb. Still Life, her last book, may be her best - but for teaching purposes her book of short stories, The One That Got Away, would be more appropriate, and of the other novels Playing in the Light.
