Graphic Novels in South-Africa: the Work of Nathan Trantraal
Nathan Trantraal is one of the most versatile literary voices in South-Africa: he is the writer of poetry and graphic novels, a translator, illustrator, playwright, scenarist and columnist. He wrote three collections of poetry, four graphic novels and a collection of columns and essays. In March this year, his new graphic novel Die Man Wattie Kinnes Vang will be published. On 13 March, Trantraal will visit Leiden University to talk about his work.
Multitalent
Nathan Trantraal grew up near Cape Town, in an area where poverty and gang violence are the order of the day; those themes are present in his many-sided oeuvre. Just like his partner, the poet and novelist Ronelda S. Kamfer, who visited Leiden University Libraries earlier this year, he is a trailblazer for a new generation of Afrikaans-speaking writers from neglected communities. He is also a pioneer when it comes to using Kaaps as a literary language.
