Quite Footsteps explores moral themes relating to political and social change in South Africa. An obscene clamour that the poet sees as eviscerating our country's humanity becomes the catalyst for an excoriating attack on a time that "renders everything as matters of abuse", and a passionate demand that we find in ourselves – for ourselves, and in honour of the spirits of the dead – the capacity for the humane. This major work by one of South Africa's poets will trouble every conscience, even as it revives our faltering hope for a healed nation.
