Lindy Stiebel Reviews Revenge of Kali by Aziz Hassim

October 15th, 2009 by Sophy

Revenge of KaliAziz HassimVerdict: carrot

Aziz Hassim’s second book, Revenge of Kali, sets him on the path to “becoming to Durban what Vladislavic is to Johannesburg”.

At the recent Words on Water festival in Durban, which brought together writers from India and South Africa for two days of discussion and readings, one session was themed Plantation Literature.

Aziz Hassim’s second novel, Revenge of Kali, was one of the featured novels which can be seen as the newest addition to South African-Indian writing focusing on the system of indentured labour and its heritage in this country.
