Moerstaāl

Author: Loit Sōls

Format: Softcover

In Moerstaāl Loit Sōls writes about his ancestors, the First Indigenous people at the southern-most tip of Africa. Not only the contents of his poems but also his vocabulary and orthography are enriched by his heritage.

The life-giving mother figure comes to the fore: she who was oppressed and overlooked and whose contribution, like that of the language, this collection attempts to restore. Sōls’ “skryf-stills” are a lament against loss and an attempt to ensure permanence.
