'A Language to Fit Africa' : 'Africanness' and 'Europeanness' in the South African Imagination, Gabeba Baderoon , single work criticism

In this essay, Gabeba explores 'the meanings of the words through etymology of the notorious word 'kaffir' and the analysis of two literary texts: Mr Chameleon (2005) by Tatamkhulu Afrika; and Castaway (1999) by Yvette Christianse. Mr Chameleon and Castaway are both autobiographical works that allude to the place of Islam in colonial and apartheid South Africa.' (p. 69)
