Kalk Bay Books – your seaside haven for all things literary – brings you their recommended book list for the Xmas season – a list that contains a heart-gladdening 41 works of SA Lit. (There seems to be one oversight: where’s Kalk Bay favourite Finuala Dowling’s Notes from the Dementia Ward?)

BOOK SA members André Brink, Kevin Bloom, Margie Orford, Petina Gappah, Francis Wilson, Tania van Schalkwyk, Gus Ferguson and Helen Moffett feature in the mix. Congrats all!
