We remember fondly Aziz Hassim, who passed away on Friday, as a great supporter and friend of KZN Literary Tourism and an imaginative writer, who conjured up the streets of the Casbah in works such as The Lotus People. Our prayers are with his family.

Literary Tourism is tourism that deals with places and events from fictional texts as well as the lives of their authors. This could include following the route a fictional character charts in a novel, visiting particular settings from a story or tracking down the haunts of a novelist.
