A colourful autobiography. Peter Horn describes being raised in a small Yorkshire village, unrecognisable today, where horses and carts, and pigs in the public bar were normal. However, Peter was growing up in a country at the tail end of its Empire, and in a part of the country where opportunity was limited to the soon to be declining industries of the woollen mills and farming. Peter seized the opportunity of casting his net wider, to see and experience other cultures. travelling the world with the British Army, to places as far flung and varied as Brunei, Libya and Northern Ireland. Later years are sadly characterised by the toll of age, both in the author and loved ones with his true account of coping and managing the cruel progression of dementia and the impact this had on him and his family and so his story needed to end with a first-person polemic on the treatment of older adults in the UK within the care system, and more specifically his beloved wife, Moira. True to his word and his vows, through sickness and in health and faced with many challenges with the social care systems, he promised Moira he would never leave her side and care for her right to the very end, and that he honoured with humour, dignity and respect.

The essays collected here are responses to books of poetry and prose published during the transition period from the apartheid regime of the mid-1980s to the first democratic election in South Africa in 1994. The volume comprises a variety of texts written during the crucial mid-1980s - the time of the "Emergency" and the height of oppression - up to and including the installation of the first freely elected South African government in 1994. In the years of anti-apartheid struggle, the immediate political conflict was pre-eminent in the minds of many poets but extended to broader concerns about race, writing and colonialism, such as the debate about the imbongi (African praise singer) as the true antecedent of the contemporary African poet. After the end of apartheid new challenges came to the South African book publishing industry and, thus, to South African writers, as they tried to make sense of the past and draw tentative lines into the future. The works of J. M. Coetzee, Njabulo Ndebele, Kelwyn Sole, Sandile Dikeni, Vincent Swart, Heather Robertson, Patrick Cullinan, Seitlhamo Motsapi, W. P. B. Botha and more are read against this changing social and political landscape.
