At this year’s Open Book Festival, uHlanga’s founder, Nick Mulgrew, sat down with @sindibusuku for an unflinching and lyrical conversation about Nick’s new book, ‘The Book of Unrest’, and our Edinburgh-based sister-press, @batis.books. Their discussion traces the coastlines of memory and loss, ancestry and belonging; the same landscapes that haunt Mulgrew’s work with both beauty and unease. 🎧 Watch now via the link in our bio. @openbookfest #uHlanga #PagecastPodcast #OpenBookFestival #SouthAfricanBooks #BookInterviews #BookPodcast #NickMulgrew #SindiswaBusuku #obf2025
