This is great thanks! Keep up the good work! Who do I talk to at the Heritage Portal about co-ordinating a launch in Johannesburg for the extraordinary book Dreams & Dust on or about Sunday 20 August? The book is about the 58 (!) short-lived republics that have existed in South Africa since 1795 - and an equally interesting 20 fictional ones (Bapetikosweti, Fook, Wakanda etc). I'm doing a book launches tour around SA in August, with events at the Irma Stern Museum UCT, Bokmakiri Books Swellendam, Knysna Library, Institute of Literature at Rhodes University, Pietermaritzburg, Nelspruit, and culminating at a launch event at the Johannesburg Country Club. Dreams & Dust is being published by Footprint Press. Please be in contact - Alex Stone alzzstone@gmail.com
