Manage episode 446047112 series 2300930
In this episode I talk to Don Beukes, originally from Cape Town, South Africa. He was born, raised and educated in the Western Cape during the last two decades of apartheid. He moved to the UK to teach English. He is now a retired English and Geography teacher, residing as a French citizen. He has been weaving words since his childhood years. He writes about global issues affecting our global village and trying to adjust our moral compass. His poetry has appeared in Indiana Voice Journal, Prachya Review, Tuck Magazine, Dissident Voice, The Voices Project, and GloMag. He has been published in three Anthologies by Creative Talents Unleashed; 'Shades of the Same Skin' and 'Poetic Melodies', 'Selfhood' anthology by Transcendent Zero Press and a South African anthology 'In Pursuit of Poetic Perfection'.
His South African publication debut of fourteen exclusive poems was published by Libbo Publishers in August 2018 with three other prominent SA authors Bevan Boggenpoel, Leroy Abrahams and Selwyn Milborrow in a unique anthology 'In Pursuit of Poetic Perfection', which upon release went to number 1 in 'African Literature' on Amazon Kindle.
