Overview
From the ritual songs and stories of the country's earliest inhabitants to the rousing calls to action by anti-apartheid artists, oral poetry has always been an integral part of South Africa's literary and cultural heritage. This book casts fresh light on the richness of this neglected yet vibrant tradition.
