Imagine being imprisoned on Robben Island... The solitude of life behind bars would definitely solicit an ‘exchange of letters’ (or muqabalah) as your livelihood; the similitude of which may best be described as: “One seeing only prison bars; the other seeing only twinkling stars.”

‘Working in Warwick’ is the title of a new book that’s just been launched; with the question on everybody’s mind: Is Warwick working?

Written by Richard Dobson and Caroline Skinner with Jillian Nicholson, ‘Working in Warwick’ was launched on the evening of Wednesday, June 24, 2009 at the Durban Art Gallery in Anton Lembede (Smith Street). Acclaimed photographer Dennis Gilbert’s selection of photographs which were commissioned for the book were also on exhibit at the launch.
