Review # 1 was written on 2014-12-07 00:00:00 David J Phillips-lloyd I took this book out of the library mainly because it had an article by an old friend, Graham Pechey, who died in Cambridge, UK, in February 1916. I had known Graham Pechey when I was a student in the 1960s, and it was he who introduced me to Bob Dylan. The first article in the book, however, is by Andre Brink, on "Interrogating silence". I haven't read the whole book, just some of the more interesting essays in it. I've marked it as "Read" simply because I've taken it back to the library and am no longer currently reading it. In addition to those mentioned above there is a rather good one by Lewis Nkosi on the differences between black writing and white writing in South Afruica, and how both have been differently affected by postmodernism.
