In response to the collective trauma caused by femicide, writers and artists were invited to contemplate femicide and translate (explicate) it from their creative perspectives. Beautiful writing emanated from some of the country’s emerging and established writers. Graphoflux is proud to present these poems, pieces of prose and short stories in ISSUE 001 of the digital anthology. The stories were selected and curated in the anthology by Vuyolwethu Reoagile.
