WITH Bibi Slippers FACILITATOR Kabous Meiring
Soekenjin is a contemporary collection of poems about the "internet of things". These are verses about the search for love, for the self, for meaning, for the right word and for banal information on the Internet. And about the claim that is made on our attention daily and sometimes leads us down strange detours. In this exciting volume, the reader is overwhelmed with connections, just as we have become accustomed to being connected to everyone else via the Internet. There is no one else who deals with technology in Afrikaans poetry like Bibi Slippers.
