AN author and philanthropist, Kwanele Mlambisa, from Emahlathini location in Centane, has published his first book, titled Smelling the Coffee<\/span>, which is a collection of short stories. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mlambisa obtained his Bachelor of Law (LLB) degree from the University of Fort Hare in East London. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said he is passionate about writing and had written three books but only published this one, so far. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to him the second book, a novel titled Limiting Cultures<\/span>, would be released towards the end of this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI developed a love for writing when I was young. But only after I graduated, I developed the boldness and confidence to write,\u201d said Mlambisa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said what inspired him to write was the belief that it was his talent from God. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For more information about the book, visit his Facebook page, Kwanele Kweyla Mlambisa, or send him an e-mail at madibakweyla919@gmail.com.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
