Kinyamaswa: An Epic Poem (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781627200745)

Kinyamaswa, part creation myth and part heroic journey, tells of Rwandan refugees in the DR Congo after the tragic 1994 genocide. This an epic work of poetry that pulls the reader through the plight of the Rwanda people, the shredding of their lives in a bout of ethnic madness, and their deadly exodus. Strong verbs, evocative vocabulary, and stunning visual depictions entice the reader to follow this bloody and tragic story as it unfolds. Fall into Morgner's poetry and your heart will be broken, stolen, and changed for life. "Robust storytelling and lyric power will propel you through this stark, yet deeply spiritual work. A timeless and artful investigation into the mutually assured costs of war." - Emily Stokes, managing editor, Madcap Review
