Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This threesome reflects seemingly quite different sensibilities but running underground are common sources, primarily a genuine sense of observation and empathy. Parenzees fine delineation of detail, his ideological openness but strong sense of justice link well with Vonani Bilas makoya poetry (rendered largely in Xitsonga with English translations). This poetry that rails in its own manner against money madness and apartheid barbarism stands apart from Finlays quieter voice but both command reflection. After all, it is a phrase in a Finlay poem that titles this anthology. Finlays work in general contains images of dissolution in a search for meaning from suffering.
