Gcina Mhlophe

Gcina Mhlophe is one of the people who had a major influence upon me and many other poets and narrative writers. I was first exposed to her as a child through her radio stories which played every single Saturday morning, on UMhlombo Wenene. There are not many videos of her reading or telling her stories, but I have managed to get this one where she is reading from her one of her favorite books.  When listening to her, you cannot help but be captured by her animated way of story telling.
