  • Ek en jy bestaan nie - Desmond Painter in gesprek met Danie Marais

    24/06/2024 Duration: 01h03min

    Desmond Painter is in gesprek met Danie Marais by Exclusive Books V&A Waterfront. Ek en jy bestaan nie is die langverwagte vierde bundel uit die pen van die bekroonde digter Danie Marais. Soos in sy vorige bundels is dit gedigte wat openhartige, intieme gesprekke met die leser aanknoop – hierdie keer oor die ongemakke van ras en klas. Dis ’n bundel oor die menslike middelklastoestand en die unbearable whiteness of being wat waag om te praat oor die dinge waaroor mense liefs stilbly in die woonbuurte van Stellenbosch waar ’n koue burgeroorlog stil in die boomryke strate woed. #NBBoekhoek

  • Soul of a Nation: Oyama Mabandla & Redi Tlhabi

    09/05/2024 Duration: 01h47min

    In this episode of Book Nook, Redi Tlhabi chats to Oyama Mabandla about his book Soul of a Nation (Tafelberg, 2024), recorded at the book's launch Exclusive Books Hyde Park, Johannesburg. What is Soul of a Nation about? There is lament about how and why the ANC have so quickly become preoccupied with material enrichment. Former exile, business leader and political commentator, Oyama Mabandla, excavates the values that created a steady flow of pioneering South Africans under impossible circumstances, bolstered a liberation ethic and championed a leadership that made individual nobility and excellence aspirational. These values, in retreat since 94, can still recapture the nation's best trajectory. Soul of a Nation is available to purchase online or at local bookstores.
