Death is a fact of life, but the experience of grief is unique to each of us. This poignant and thought-provoking anthology gives us portraits of grief as seen through the eyes of writers and poets. The contributions range from the deeply personal: a poet chronicles her relationship with her troubled, abusive father, a World War II survivor – to the political: an investigator from the Missing Persons Task Team draws us into the ongoing search for the remains of activists who were murdered by the apartheid state between 1960 and 1994 – to the philosophical: a writer ponders the ethics of killing small animals. Perhaps grief never truly ends but these stories transform the pain of death into something beautiful so that we can find ways to live with loss. Featuring contributions by Sisonke Msimang, Mary Watson, Karin Schimke, Hedley Twiddle, Ishtiyaq Shukri, Dawn Garisch, Shubnum Khan, Malika Ndlovu, Toni Stuart, Stacy Hardy and more.

With the postponement of the in-person launches of Living While Feminist, several of the contributors pulled together virtually to bring you this podcast! We compiled their WhatsApp voicenotes into this podcast, where you'll get to hear readings from various authors, the inspiration behind their contributions and much more. Living While Feminist will be available in all good bookstores when lockdown is over, but the great news is you can get the eBook NOW on various platforms! - Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Living-While-Feminist-bodies-truths-ebook/dp/B086CB48G8/ - Takealot: https://www.takealot.com/living-while-feminist-ebook/PLID68749540 - Kobo: https://www.kobo.com/za/en/ebook/living-while-feminist - Snapplify: https://shop.snapplify.com/product/living-while-feminist More about the book: So much of our life experience is filtered through our bodies – norms, myths, and cultural standards continue to shape the way that we and the world feel about our bodies and how we see ourselves. Feminism says these rules are b***s***. Our bodies can be tools for conformity or resistance. Feminism helps us learn and unlearn things about ourselves and the world we live in. Feminism is for all of us, for every single body. This collection takes us from an examination of skin and hair, to an exploration of pleasure, sex, and safety. It considers the way our bodies change, our health, and how we become who we are. It questions the way that institutions can trap us, how we can trap ourselves, and the importance of our hearts in all of this. Bold and honest, these writings ask questions more than they try to force answers. This book reminds us that feminism is dynamic, open, and ever relevant. Writing by Desiree Lewis, Mishumo Madima, Tiffany Kagure Mugo, Dawn Garisch, Nobantu Shabangu, Helen Moffett, M.A. Warden, Nyx McLean, Noah Sloman, Srila Roy, Owethu Makhathini and others. 'An enlightening read that makes you want to stand on a mountain top and shout, "Viva feminism, viva". Living While Feminist is powerful, real and raw." - Qaanitah Hunter Music: 'Waves' by Pictures of a Floating World - https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Pictures_of_the_Floating_World/Waves_1528/Waves_1217
