In the Country of the Black Pig

Printed laminated wrappers. SIGNED by author to title page. Fine. *** Collection of poetry by South African novelist and poet Christopher Hope. His first two poetry books were suppressed by censors in South Africa and his first novel, A Separate Development (1978) was banned for its overt criticism of the Apartheid government. In the Country of the Black Pig was his first poetry collection after his “self-imposed” exile in London.
