Daarna hou hy hom besig met romans waarvan die eerste een, <em>Stinkafrikaners<\/em>, in 2001 met die Eug\u00e8ne Marais-prys bekroon is. Uiteindelik is hy hier met <em>Nou in infrarooi<\/em>, \u2019n bundel met \u201clieflike taalgevoeligheid\u201d, s\u00ea Louise Viljoen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fisika, die metafisiese, en soms selfs wetenskapfiksie word onder meer verweef in die bekroonde skrywer Tom Dreyer se debuutbundel, <em>Nou in infrarooi<\/em>. Soos die titel suggereer, gaan dit hier oor dit wat sigbaar is versus dit wat ni\u00e9 deur blote sig waarneembaar is nie. Die gedigte begin in die konkrete. Met fyn waarneming word bestaande plekke \u2013 sommige naby en ander ver \u2013 taktiel uitgebeeld. Dit is veral waar in die vele reisgedigte en natuurgedigte. Hiermee saam hang die verkenning van die onsigbare: van identiteit, \u2019n soeke na waar jy hoort, en van die mens se nietigheid binne die onmeetbare ruimtelike bestel. Ook verlange, weemoed en liefde word in hierdie bundel verken. Die eerlike, ontroerende liefdesgedigte, ontdaan aan sentiment, tel onder die bundel se vele hoogtepunte. Dit is \u2019n po\u00ebtika gekenmerk deur die evokatiewe gebruik van klank, en die keuse van die presiese resonante woord. \u2019n Bundel waarmee Dreyer hom onomwonde as digter vestig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Tom Dreyer<\/strong> se <em>Stinkafrikaners<\/em> (2000) is met die Eug\u00e8ne Maraisprys bekroon.

For him, home has always been a site of anxiety.

An unexpected trip to his childhood community forces him to pay attention to long-repressed memories. A powerful coming-of-age story about a boy from rural Limpopo who must find ways to manage loss and to become fully himself as a gay man, <em>A Soft Landing<\/em> explores the implications of a past not decisively dealt with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Wisani Mushwana<\/strong> is a writer and researcher.

Wat aanvanklik na \u2019n eksotiese avontuur klink en \u2019n geleentheid om sy splinternuwe Brownie-kamera op die proef te stel, verander spoedig in \u2019n uitdaging van \u2019n ander aard. Die ellende van Britse soldate en Boerekrygers tref hom hard en die Britse owerhede se aggressiewe oorlogsbeleid maak hom toenemend ongemaklik. En daar is Klara Grootboom, \u2019n skoonmaker by die hospitaal, wat hom onkant vang met \u2019n ongewone versoek. Dit wat sy van hom vra, druis teen al sy persoonlike en professionele beginsels in, maar dis asof sy hom in \u2019n vangnet van haar eie het. Meer as \u2019n honderd jaar later skep \u2019n opkomende Kaapse kunstenaar \u2019n uitstalling uit Deelfontein se gegewens om sin te maak van haar herkoms en die rol wat kuns kan speel om die impak van magsmisbruik teen te werk.
