"The Attribute of Poetry" received judges’ commendation in the 2016 Ingrid Jonker Prize. Galgut’s collection was described as "a stunning debut" that "moves with great ease from the personal to the philosophical".
These deeply felt poems are at once plain-speaking and alive with complexity; Galgut's elegant response to both pain and loveliness is inspiring. Elisa Galgut teaches in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Cape Town. She has a PhD in Philosophy from Rutgers University and a Masters in Creative Writing from the University of Cape Town. Her poetry has appeared in local literary journals and anthologies. She lives in Cape Town.
