The ArtsJuly 2024Lifework
On the autobiographical impulse in contemporary art, writing, and theory
by Moran Sheleg
Following the critical scepticism surrounding the notion of the 'self' as a singular entity during the 1960s, many artists and writers sought to test the apparent problem posed by autobiography as both a traditional genre and as a way of working. Considering the consequent emergence of autotheory, Lifework traces this shift in artistic and literary production during the late twentieth century and beyond, examining a set of diverse practices that mine the line between what it is to make art and what it is to live life. The book's chapters connect a variety of artistic strategies that cut across medium, geography and time, uncovering how the historical marginalisation of first-person experience has taken on larger social, cultural and political implications in the contemporary moment and how the work of living might still relate to the work of art.

HistoryAmaZizi: the Dlamini of Southern Africa 2nd Ed
by Jongisilo Z. Z. Pokwana Ka Menziwa, Ngangomzi Pokwana Ah! Jongumhlaba
The Dlamini people are a stock race that, during the 19th century, spread throughout the then largely uninhabited Southern Africa. Today they can be found concentrated in Swaziland, in the Eastern Cape, in KwaZulu Natal and in many other parts of the country. The first edition traced a story of these people from before 2000 years ago until today, then focused on a section of the Dlamini known as AmaZizi. The second edition expands this base with new research and information. If you have the surname Dlamini, the history and traditions of your ancestors can be found within these pages.

Children's & YAThe Moon is Like a Golden Boat
by Juhani Püttsepp, Gundega Muzikante
White Raven 2021Every time Keete looks at pictures from her childhood where she’s holding her teddy bear Pätsu in her lap, she wonders what life would have been like without war. Her parents would certainly have been able to keep working as teachers without living in terror of the communists deporting them to Siberia. The whole family could have spent nights without having to hurry to the bomb shelter or see their precious hometown in ruins. In peacetime, she could have kept living on the second floor of their cherry-red home instead of setting off on a harrowing journey across the Baltic Sea to Sweden. Years and years later, Keete thinks about how lucky today’s kids are to grow up without war. And she still cradles Pätsu in her arms – a teddy bear who helped her get through life’s perils.

FictionMay 2023Tears of the Weavear
Short stories
by Zaheera Jina Asvat
In these superbly crafted stories, the author takes us into the private worlds of a rich variety of characters, revealing the complex weave of emotions often hidden behind the veneer of everyday lives. The stories take a fresh look at conventions and roles governed by religion and culture, providing earthy portraits of people struggling with ongoing oppressions, especially concerning gender, in post-apartheid South Africa. Bhajee’s concern is a stolen electricity meter, which cannot be replaced because a fictional Mr Ka Ching Ching is the registered owner; and Suhail Mangel, a victim of xenophobia, fears that his family has cursed him. Shaazia cannot conceive, and is offered the option of a surrogate in the form of a second wife. Then there is the woman in Covid-19 lockdown trying to fathom her broken marriage; a family fighting for inheritance in the face of religious law; and a cat who brings gifts to her depressed owner.
