This is Lesego Rampolokeng's first book of poems to be published in South Africa since The Bavino Sermons (Gecko/UKZN Press 1999). One measure of a poet is the range of his concerns, and Lesego Rampolokeng takes on religion, war, street violence, global economics, obscenity, history, wordplay, sexual perversion, and, not least, his own contradictions.
