Description
ISIS X features the poems of elsbeth e, Sumeera Dawood, Lisemelo Tlale, Elizabeth Trew, Anet Kemp, Baitse Mokiti, Myesha Jenkins, Arja Salafranca, Makhosazana Xaba, Riana Wiechers, Bongekile Mbanjwa and Anna Varney; and the photographs of Neo Ntsoma, Suzy Bernstein, Riana Wiechers and Anna Varney.
The poets have all been published in Botsotso; many have published their own individual books - all reflect contemporary poetry which challenges prejudice and preconceptions and which is part of the Botsotso cultural dynamic to infuse new themes and images into South African literature and the visual arts, in this instance, particularly by and about women. And these women transcend tired colonial and traditional cliches as well as pretentious post-modern forms of expression. This work is real.
