Dear Paul

The best acount of Bessie Head available, to my knowledge, is Gillian
Stead Eilersen's excellent biography, Bessie Head: Thunder Behind her
Ears. It covers her mental health problems quite well. It's a cracking good
read. Here are the details from my institution's library catalogue:

Bessie Head : thunder behind her ears : her life and writing. Publisher:
Portsmouth, N.H. : Heinemann London : J. Currey Cape Town : D. Philip,
1995.
