About this book:

Ryan Pedro’s debut poetry collection contains moving poems often presented from the perspective of a coloured boy in a rural town. The complexities of identity, race, class and education are examined through this boy’s movement between different worlds within his own family and within the small-town setting. This is mirrored in the language used in the novel, which switches between varieties of Afrikaans. Experiences underrepresented in Afrikaans poetry presented here by a strong new voice.
