No Bessie Head? Yet?
Please, try Tales of Tenderness and Power, AWS, 1989
Really sad for Auntie Bessie that she died before 1994; may she rest in peace, as she smiles down on the result of her life’s work and struggles.

Great. Have you read Sri Aurobindo’s epic poem ( the longest epic poem in English ) SAVITRI ?
I translated it into TELUGU.
I thought we can explore the theme from African and Indian perspectives!
