Breytenbach is a prolific South African author and artist with a global audience. His work is regularly published in Harper's, and other well-known literary journals and magazines. Like Eduardo Galeano and Arundhati Roy, Breytenbach's writing is elegant and literary, while often dealing with topics of immediate social significance. This new collection explores such topics, including the American presidential elections, the perilous state of post-apartheid South Africa, yet is also concerned with the role of the writer and artist in a globalized world.
