From Under the Willow

Google's Blogspot claims to be currently undergoing a "New Look". We are unable to get a response to our daily pleas for "Help". Meanwhile, we apologize for the unpredicable ~ sometimes absent ~ postings. Yesterday, we were able to post text only if we first posted a photograph. Today we can post text although we have no choice of font or size. We are suspending our "visit to the bookshop" until the problem is resolved. lbw

THURSDAY, JULY 18 at 1:00 p.m.

Google's Blogspot features are currently limited.  We cannot edit previous post.  Please note, should read JULY 18.  Thank you.  

Alan Biship's poetry was written over some fifty years in three different countries.  It reflects the intensely personal experiences of the poet.
While an undergraduate at Rhodes University during the anti-apartheid struggle in South Africa, Alan participated in protest-marches.  He had his name recorded by the police.
Mr. Biship continued to "follow the tensions of life in South Africa" while at Corpus Christi College in Oxford, England.  After three years in Oxford, he returned to his native Zimbabwe (then Rhodesia) where he taught for a year at a Black high-school; married and accepted a lectureship in the Department of English Language at the University of Cape Town.  This ended abruptly when the government expelled anti-apartheid university teachers.  Mr. Biship returned to Oxford, completed a D.Phil then emigrated to Canada.

The Neat Little Bookshop is honoured to host an afternoon with Alan Bishop on Thursday, June 18 at 1:00 p.m.  Everyone welcome.

Available at the bookshop:  Contemporaneous Impressions/South African, English & Canadian Poems (1957 - 2010) by Alan Bishop.  McMaster Innovation Press.
