About the book

Explores Bessie Head's writing in all its facets, with a particular emphasis on her sensitivity to gender. Living On A Horizon shows how she develops plots, themes and creative realms that unsettle male-centred narratives, with multivocal plots indicating the importance she attaches to configuring voices, stories, desires and creative realms that may be suppressed by patriarchal codes.
