Peter Clarke and James Matthews were born within days of each
other. Clarke on 2 June 1929 in a stone cottage overlooking False
Bay. Matthews eight days earlier, across Table Mountain, in a
Bo-Kaap tenement building facing the city bowl. These two boys,
from similar backgrounds, grew into young men before they met and
formed a friendship that would last a lifetime. They became 'almost
more than brothers'. Yet they are complete opposites: Clarke is
charecterized by his dignified reserve and meticulous order,
Mattthews by his forthrighteness and bohemian disorder. Over a
period of more than forty years both became well known in their
respective disciplines--Clarke became a poet, short-story writer
and primarily a painter; Matthews sharted out writing short stories
and novels, before establishing himself as the dispatcher of raging
Black Consciousness poetry. This book is a tribute to two fiercely
independent artists. It is liberally illustrated with the work of
both artists in b/w and color photographs.
