	Tribute K.Sello Duiker
		Duiker, who suffered from bipolar affective disorder, committed suicide in a state of depression he attributed to his mood-stabilising medication, which he felt was “taking too great a toll on his artistic creativity and joie de vivre” (Van der Merwe, 2005).
		Duiker's first novel, Thirteen Cents, goes to the core of what has been a clear subject of avoidance for writers: the astonishing rate at which children are now victims of a (violent) society intent on turning a blind eye to the plight of its weakest members.
		Duiker's observations of Cape Town and its inhabitants are certainly meant to please and displease in equal measure.

		A number of Sello's SABC colleagues paid moving tributes to Sello, eulogising him as a rare gem, brilliant, highly talented, gifted author and an SABC Drama Commissioning Editor par excellence who also was a convention-breaker, especially with his dreadlocked hairdo and utter refusal to imprison himself in suits and ties.
		Judah Duiker, Sello's father, spoke very eloquently about his son, who, he said, "showed tremendous interest in books from a very early age: he was focused, but also always giving unreservedly of himself whenever anyone needed his help".
