I have the privilege of chairing two sessions at the Kingsmead Book Fair this year on Saturday, 25 May.
12:30 – 13:30, Mackenzie 1| The body keeps score: tales from under the skin
Karina Szczurek (Hair: Weaving & Unpicking Stories of Identity) asks Kim Ballantine (Hot Tea and Apricots: A Memoir of Loss and Hope) if it’s smart to trust your gut.
14:30 – 15:30, Music Centre | No place to call home
Karina Szczurek (editor of Fluid: The Reason To Be) talks to Kobby Ben Ben (No One Dies Yet), Irene Muchemi-Ndiritu (Lucky Girl) and Buntu Siwisa (Paperless) about how it feels to be foreign.
