Five Seats is a literary commentary on dogmatism, hypocrisy, privilege, and the devastating impact of various forms of violence. But it is also a story of overcoming, hope, and reclaiming what was lost.
Any questions…?
Readers and prospective readers joined author Leonie Vorster on 9 August 2021 at 3pm SAST for a Women’s Day celebration of her magical realism novel, Five Seats.
Gugu Mtshali was in conversation with Leonie about the book, writing, and what the future holds for her.
Leonie read two passages from her book, and based on the readings, the audience tried their best to answer the book trivia quiz questions. Congratulations to Belinda, who received a signed copy of Five Seats, and a one-on-one chat with the author!
If you couldn’t attend, you can watch the recording here, and if you have any questions for the author, do get in touch!
