UNLIKELY

63pp., paperback, Cape Town, 2016

A first collection of poems by Colleen Crawford Cousins.

"In acutely observed poems, imbued with surprising geographies of imagery and tinged with irony, Crawford Cousins maps out the spaces between immensity and confinement, where people struggle with each other and themselves for a sense of fulfilment and belonging." Kelwyn Sole, author of "Absent Tongues"

Colleen Crawford Cousins is also the author of "A Hundred Furrows, the land struggle in Zimbabwe 1899-1990" and a co-author of "Lwaano Lwanyika, Tonga book of the Earth".
