Into the Okavango
is a lavishly illustrated 500-photograph, 92-poem 12-inch by 13-inch coffee
table book great for gift-giving. A finalist for four awards for excellence, it
takes its readers on 23 days of safaris through Botswana, Zimbabwe and South

dangerous, the camps more remote, the poet embarks on a darker, shadow journey
to the sad, painful secrets of her soul not often visited. Rounding Cape Point
proves to be a triumphant catharsis for the poet.
