We Jive Like This: Collective and Individual Poems

by Siphiwe Ka Ngwenya (Compiler)

The Botsotso Jesters poetry performance group was founded in 1994. After a few member changes, it solidified in 1996 with the line up that published this first Botsotso book. The collectively written poems that provided such powerful performance material are followed by individual collections of each of the five. Anna Varney's graphics set the tone for many future books in which the combination of written and visual images becomes a striking factor.

Classic SA writing style of approaching difficult tragic life challenges and yet exposing and exhibiting simple life pleasures that we all hunger for . What treasure. Dankie Baba...or should I say.. Dankie Driver... What a journey.
