Celebrating Zoë Wicomb: Writing Between Worlds

Beloved writer, teacher, and thinker Zoë Wicomb transformed South African and Scottish literature with work of extraordinary intelligence, nuance, and moral clarity.

In this special tribute event, we honour the life and work of the author of You Can’t Get Lost in Cape Town, David’s Story, and Still Life, celebrating her voice, her influence, and the enduring power of work that reshaped how we understand home, history, and belonging.

Join friends and colleagues including Louise Welsh and Chitra Ramaswamy to discuss this astonishing individual.
