When she’s not hard at work at ELLE, our features director Annelize Visser moonlights as a translator. She recently completed the translation into English of Die Blou van Onthou, the eighth novel by award-winning South African author Marita van der Vyver. Forget-me-not-Blues is a great read, Annelize says. ‘It’s a sweeping family saga that spans 70 years of South African history and three continents, and tells the stories of three generations of women in such a compelling way that I was still thoroughly entertained the fourth and final time I worked through it.’ Annelize will be in conversation with Marita at the launch of Forget-me-not-Blues at Kalk Bay Books at 7pm today.
