Alone in the House

By Michael Wessels

In this posthumously published collection of poems, Michael Wessels' passionate love for and knowledge of the natural world shines through. The poems are about life's joyful and also painful journeys, whether physical or spiritual or emotional. The poems are about encounter. And discovery. They are testaments to a life lived to the full. A life filled with deep compassion and wisdom.

Michael Wessels was Associate Professor of English at the University of the Western-Cape. His research explored new ways of reading San oral literature and the politics of indigeneity. He published more than thirty accredited articles and chapters in books in his career. He died tragically in 2018.
