ABSTRACT
Duncan Brown (DB): Creative non-fiction has become in a sense ‘the genre’ of South African writing (recently, your own work, as well as that of Sihle Khumalo, Jacob Dlamini, Max du Preez, Rian Malan, Kevin Bloom, Denis Beckett, Shaun Johnson, Jonny Steinberg, Stephen Otter, John Carlin, Njabulo S. Ndebele, Jeff Opland, Julia Martin, Sarah Nuttall, Liz McGregor, Hedley Twidle; historically, Sol T. Plaatje, Can Themba, Nat Nakasa, Todd Matshikiza, Alan Paton, H.I.E. Dhlomo and many more): writing that makes its meanings at the unstable fault line of the literary and journalistic, the imaginative and the reportorial.
