Poetry. Winner of the 2021 P.C. Hooft-prize, the most important
literary prize in The Netherlands for a whole oeuvre. Partly
inspired by Chaka, a famous South African novel from 1931, written
by Thomas Mofolo, the book charts the imaginary progress of the
nineteenth-century statesman and tyrant, Shaka Zulu (1787-1828).
Structured around a series of daydreams and major events in Zulu's
life, the poet extracts Zulu from the historical past and moves him
to the modern media age where speed dating, UFOs and effervescent
pain-killers are the norm. The collection is hugely diverse, from
lyrical poetry to tweets to wit.
