We’re very pleased to hear the news that Musawenkosi Khanyile’s debut collection All the Places has been shortlisted for the 2020 South African Literary Award for Poetry.

This continues a successful year for Musa, who was also a finalist for the 2020 Ingrid Jonker Prize, which was eventually won by uHlanga’s own Saaleha Idrees Bamjee.

Congratulations to Musa, and to the other shortlisted writers, Sally-Ann Murray, Marlise Joubert, and Loftus Marais. The full shortlist for all of the awards is available here.

The winners will be announced later this month.
