The two million Africans who served Europe’s powers in war a century ago have been lost to history. Now artist & PEN SA member William Kentridge is trying to set that right in The Head & The Load, combining dance, theatre, sculpture and film. ft.com/content/17cf55…

It’s good to see the SS Mendi bell back home in South Africa. Last year I wrote for The New Yorker about what the Mendi legend means to young SA navy sailors today, and think often of what one of the SANLC veterans wrote about his treatment after the war: newyorker.com/news/news-desk…

I’ve never been prouder of anything than of starting (with James King, Anneke Rautenbach and @NichMulgrew ) and editing - for the last six years - Prufrock Magazine. Thank you to the writers, readers, funders and bookstores that made it possible.

PEN SA notes with sadness the closure of South African literary journal, Prufrock Magazine. Show your support for what has truly been a bold and enriching contribution to local literature by purchasing a copy of Prufrock one last time. Details: bit.ly/30LQEwn

"The journal has consistently published some of the best new writing from both established and unknown local names. This has made it a staple read among literary lovers across the country and, indeed, the world." Thank you PEN South Africa for the kind words!
