In postmodern prose text, the notion of play is considered as a key tool in exhibiting the question of literature of excess. Such primacy is reflected in the text of Kopano Matlwa. Her literary production serves as an important channel in which writing chaos (Watto Gneba, 2025) can be conveyed as the essential guiding principle. A literary work of this kind of magnitude as the South African writer's offers a discordant perspective within the orthodox novel realm. Put differently, with the novelist, the notion of rhetoric lies in the skin color, linguistic mixture and the reinvention of neologies. In short, through the author's prose text the text is no longer at the center of literature indeed. Instead, it is hybridization that takes the lead. Therefore, it constitutes its only raw material. Throughout her pen Kopano shows that the process of globalizing the prose text emerges as another avenue for the exploration of the history of literature culture.
