Cape Town Encounters: Portraits of diversity

0/5 ( ratings)

What happens when a philosopher and an anthropologist set out to explore one of the world's most capricious cities? Follow Dawn Kennedy and Bernd Bierbaum on their journeys into communities bound by klawerjas, snoek fishing and big waves. Mix with Obs goths, Maitland cemetery caretakers and Camps Bay cybertribes. Listen to songs by Nyanga township violinists, the visions of Kalk Bay sprout addicts and revelations of an acclaimed crime writer.
A fascinating kaleidoscope of explorations and interviews unmasks life at the tip of Africa as you could never have imagined.

All encounters featured here are from the author's own exploration of five years, when they ran a print magazine; in Cape Town, about Cape Town. Together with a fun team of professional creatives and connoisseurs, the dream was to edge closer and to reveal more. The writing is by Dawn Kennedy, Bernd Bierbaum, Sarah Picton, Natalia Baker, Sibulele Sikuni and Jerome Davis.

This book is for everyone interested in the people of Cape Town and South Africa, and in travel writing.
