The Dambudzo Marechera conference took place on from May 15 to 17 at Oxford University at an event that has been described as the university's way of reclaiming an African poet that it once rejected. My interviews with Dambudzo Marechera scholars and/or proteges will cover this and other issues regarding the symposium.
The (interview) issue is scheduled to post on June 15.
