Acknowledgements
Many thanks to Colleen Higgs of Modjaji Books for her courage and commitment, to Ivan Vladislavic for an insightful structural edit, to Karen Jennings and Gill Gimberg for their sharp attention to detail, and to Natascha Mostert and Liné van Wyk for design.
The first manuscript contained a fair number of extracts from the work of famous poets resident in other countries, as well as a smattering of our own. When we began to apply for permission to use these extracts, we discovered that the costs involved were prohibitive. So I turned to other local poets to find equivalents to replace the famous. Of course, there was plenty of excellent material, and I am both proud and humbled to bring to your attention a small slice of the wealth of poetry we have in this country. What is more, their poems were offered in a spirit of collegiality. So, if you like these examples of their work, give yourself a treat and buy their collections.
I would also like to thank the publishers who gave permission for extracts to be printed in this book.
Both the Academic and Non-fiction Association of South Africa (ANFASA) and the National Arts Council (NAC) provided grants which enabled me to take time off to research and complete the book. Their help to writers is invaluable.
Many thanks to Jean Albert and her enthusiastic help in the C. G. Jung Centre library in Rosebank, Cape Town.
The following people read and commented on earlier drafts, and I am grateful for their assistance: Katherine Glenday, John Cartwright, David Hill, Ann Pargiter, Paul Ashton and Peter Lewis. To Katherine and Nicola Glenday, thank you for your creative integrity and your stunning cover. Thanks also to the many friends and strangers who said, ‘I can't wait for the book to come out’.
After four years, here it is, at last.
