Mongane Serote with Edward Blishen

Synopsis: Mongane Serote, the South African writer and poet, discusses the effect of the political situation in South Africa on his writing, and on writers in general. He also comments on his own progression as a writer - the balance he maintains between his work for the African National Congress and his writing, the conditions writers in South Africa and Europe face, and the influence of British literature on South African writing.
