| | Guy Mhone's death - on 1 March 2005, in a Pretoria hospital after an extended illness - is a great loss. It is difficult for me to talk about Guy without getting personal. Our lives were so intertwined. We often joked about how often we found ourselves in the same places. 'Tawonanaso' - 'Here we meet again' - was what we often said when we met. I recount the story in a personalised way to acknowledge my great intellectual indebtedness to Guy, with whom I have maintained the longest intellectual conversation. |
