In a series of interviews conducted in the years preceding his death in 2012, activist and scholar Neville Alexander reflected on how the languages he had used throughout his life shaped his world and his relationships with his immediate and wider communities. A version of these conversations was published in German in 2011 by Drava Verlag. In this reconstruction, the only extensive (auto)biographical work about Alexander in print in English, his belief in the emancipatory potential of multilingualism frames his vividly recalled life and his incisive observations about language in post-apartheid South Africa. He speaks candidly about his childhood in the Eastern Cape, his political awakening and Robben island incarceration. He also gives an insider's view of how South Africa's post- apartheid language dispensation was shaped. The book also includes some of Alexander's seminal writings on multilingualism, a rewarding yet often neglected aspect of his work.

Shading our eyes from the glare we stand still, breath held, scanning this blue country we are on the edge of, watching for a sign that we may go home. In poems written from and about a specific point at the tip of a continent, Karen Press sends out delicate and skilful soundings: where are we? who are we? where have we come from? what might we become? Never overburdened by earnestness, Echo Location takes a good look at the hard questions by means of great entertainment.
