Hold back your tears

Description:

From blurb of the book: "For over a decade now, many pundits of poetry have reckoned that Raselebeli “Magic” Khotseng is probably the most outstanding black poet in the Free State. This feeling has been reinforced because of the variety, fecundity and sagacity of his poems which are saturated with political undertones and palpable imagery. Over the years, a fair amount of Mr Khotseng’s poetry has appeared in a miscellany of newspapers, magazines, journals and on the internet. His far ranging subjects and topics straddle not only politics, but socials, sports, gender affairs, and even politics. This is the first collection of his dense poetry in book form - titled Hold back your tears. “This collection is a celebration, bounteous mirth and density of poetry...for years on end, Ntate Khotseng has been a great, if rather unsung poet. We are all delighted to see his maiden collection of poetry in book form,” literary commentator Flaxman Qoopane says
