Body Bereft by Antjie Krog
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Took me longer to read this than Krog’s Selected Poems (which I liked more). Some very good poems alongside rather pedestrian ones. Worth another read to see if my views change. The last part, on Table Mountain, was more uneven than I felt it should have been.
