Excited to read this one!
“If you are a writer for a specific nation or a specific race, then fuck you.”
I've only read one of the authors on this list of 10 obscure writers, and it isn't Marechera, though I think he'll be the second before too long.
Looking at his Wikipedia entry, he had a troubled and, sadly, too short life. I don't subscribe to the notion that artists must suffer for their art, but it seems he did 😕

Great opinion piece
If you are interested in the life and work of the fantastic late Zimbabwean writer Dambudzo Marechera, then I have great news. The Dambudza Marechera archive is now online and you are able to look at documents/ poems/ interviews/ photos, listen to audio material and watch video material.
