Joan Hambidge stel haar nuutste digbundel, Lot se Vrou, bekend by die Book Lounge.

“In hierdie bundel is daar heelwat stiltes in herinneringsverse en nostalgiese verse, wat afgewissel word met verse wat die stilte verskeur…. Selde nog het Hambidge die “gevaarlike woord” so onverskrokke hanteer en hierdie bundel is van haar rykste werk tot op hede.”

Sy sal in gesprek verkeer met Etienne Bloemhof.

Uitgegee deur Human & Rousseau, ‘n druknaam van NB Uitgewers.
