Yellow Shade

Yellow Shade evokes the stark textures of township and rural community life: the beauty and passion, the cruelty and humour, the noise, music and stillness. Sedite�s poems are constructed from unpredictable images � �a rain-sniffing wind�, �the knuckles of chairs�, a cupboard �wailing like a dog left alone in a garage� � in a gritty language entirely her own.
