Oor hierdie boek:

Sentenced to Lockdown, regarded as "non-essential", 40 South African writers get together in a virtual Corona Collective, to pen The Lockdown Collection, trying to make sense of a world, held hostage by a virus. Powerfully visceral, this gem includes a list of South Africa's most celebrated writers, brilliantly capturing the emotional, the spiritual and even the humorous effects of a global pandemic. This historical gem includes:Sisonke Msimang, Lebo Mashile, Fred Khumalo and Marianne Thamm.

Lesers sê

"An important contribution in global literature, each and every piece is a classic work in its own right and speaks to the extraordinary depth of writing talent in this country. My hope is that this book will be bought for every library, high school and university in this country."

– Elinor Sisulu
