At the Cape Flats Book Festival 2025

I absolutely love the Cape Flats Book Festival and look forward to attending every year. This year’s edition looks fantastic. If you are a book lover, this is the place to be on 1 and 2 February!

I have the enormous privilege of chairing a session with Thobeka Yose and Tracy Going, and being part of an event that pays tribute to Athol Williams.

Other Karavan Press authors will feature: CFBF 2025

All events are free, parking is available and, apart from all the amazing literary stuff, you will love the snacks being sold on the premises during the festival. I can’t wait and hope to see many readers and friends there! Don’t miss it :)

Festival of Poetry and Cape Flats Book Festival 2023

The 4-5 November weekend promises a lot of literary joy. The Cape Flats Book Festival is taking place that weekend and the one-day Festival of Poetry is happening on the 4th. Karavan Press authors are well represented at both, and I am also playing a role in my diverse capacities.

I had great fun at the Cape Flats Book festival last year; I am so looking forward to returning. And I am thrilled about the Festival of Poetry. A weekend of inspiration and enlightenment awaits!
