		There are prizes to testify to Tatamkulu Afrika's skills as a poet, the 1991 CNA debut award, the Thomas Pringle Award 1991, and 1993, the 1992 Olive Schreiner Prize, and the Sanlam Poetry Prize 1994 and 2000.
		Tatamkulu understood the daily violence: not only the grand violence of the apartheid state, but the mugging, the everyday event, the knife between the ribs.
		Tatamkulu looks at all utterings of human beings without disgust, with a matter of fact eye, he sees humanity in the hooligan who "hurls the knife, thudding into the door", who lives out his broken macho masculinity.

		Tatamkulu understands the daily violence: not only the grand violence of the apartheid state, but the mugging, the everyday event, the knife between the ribs.
