Boei

Presented by Protea Boekhuis

Jean Meiring is one of our country’s leading book reviewers. He approaches the art of reviewing not as a snap judgment or consumer guide, but as a form of public thinking. Boei, a collection of 85 of his reviews spanning two decades, serves as the inspiration for a broad conversation on criticism and the current state of the local literary scene. Deborah Steinmairand Kerneels Breytenbach join the discussion.
