Ōtepoti City of Literature is thrilled that Caselberg Trust Margaret Egan Cities of Literature Writers Resident Sihle Ntuli, from Durban City of Literature, will join other esteemed poets Pam Morrison and Tui Bevan with MC Jasmine Taylor for an evening not to be missed!

Sihle’s reading will include poems from his latest collection Owele (uHlanga, July 2025) and some new work, written in Ōtepoti and heard for the very first time.

This is Sihle’s last night of his six-week residency — a special chance to celebrate his creative journey in Ōtepoti and bid him farewell with poetry and warmth.

Thank you Octagon Collective for welcoming Sihle into your whānau.
