The Professionals

Is there such a thing as a professional poet in South Africa? Ingrid de Kok (Unleaving), Kobus Moolman (Fall Risk) and Joan Hambidge (Asindeton), three of our leading poets, read from their latest collections. All three of these poets have been professors, and between them they hold three lifetimes’ worth of life experience, love for, and knowledge of poetry. Join them as they weave magic with words and bring into being the things that we can feel but not always explain.
