David Reiersgord


"David Reiersgord is from somewhere in Minnesota, somehow studying South African literature half a world away. He is interested in music, history, language (although he is still learning English) and the representations of land and place. He studied at the University of Kansas and nearly lost his way by pursuing postgraduate studies in the harrowing state of Misery - more commonly known as Missouri. He misses the 10,000 lakes in Minnesota (one in particular), but continues to be fascinated by South Africa, hoping to carve out a life here."
