In Kgositsile's poetry, you hear ... the voice of the African priest speaking directly to your soul. His vision is shot through with the fundamental, whether he is talking about ancestral things or contemporary nerve failures and self-betrayals. ... Kgositsile is about the fertility rites by which life is made rich or by which we betray, if we are merely going through zombie motions.--Introduction.
