A year late, the Pre-launch Zoom recording of BLOODRED DRAGONFLIES
The book Bloodred Dragonflies took many years in the making. It took so long that I was beginning to doubt it would ever come out.
My Deep South publisher, Robert Berold, shared immense wisdom in shaping the final version of a book we felt we could be proud to share with the rest of the world. Or at least any reader of poetry who doesn’t just go for popularity or passing fads.
The book is available in South Africa through me, Robert, and at decent book sellers in the country. It is available in the Philippines through a special arrangement with San Anselmo Publications (order via their Facebook page). For the rest of the world it is distributed in hard copy and ebook format by the African Books Collective through their website. It is also available from other online retailers.
We had a Pre-launch Zoom event in April 2022. I never got around to editing the recording until yesterday. Apologies to all. I’ve posted it now on my YouTube channel, matangmanok. Please subscribe to the channel and consider sharing it. I hope to reach more readers using it.
