Description
The Hurricurrent by Rosamund Stanford is a distinctive collection of contemporary South African poetry that blends striking imagery, wry humour, and lyrical introspection. Written in language that is both accessible and quietly sophisticated, this collection captures the textures of lived experience with an unflinching, metaphysical voice. Drawing on personal reflection and the rhythms of everyday life in South Africa, Stanford’s poems offer a rare balance between local authenticity and universal resonance.
Celebrated for its inventive forms and original voice, The Hurricurrent invites readers to reconsider the familiar and embrace the unexpected. Critics have praised the collection for its sense of “lived-ness” and its ability to translate inner landscapes into vivid, audible verse. Kobus Moolman commends its fusion of local flavour with a philosophical undercurrent, while Denis Hirson highlights its laughter-edged tone and precarious yet grounded perspective.
This is a compelling collection for poetry lovers seeking thoughtful, emotionally textured writing rooted in place yet reflective of wider human questions. The Hurricurrent is ideal for readers drawn to contemporary South African literature and poetry that challenges, soothes, and surprises in equal measure.
