Their waters gather, merge and split. But even twins must create their own paths - where do their individual journeys begin, and how far must they travel to their shared destination, the vast and turbulent ocean? In Owele, Sihle Ntuli meditates on the origins of his family, clan and language through the earthen-toned rivers of the Zulu world. The history of the land becomes the history of the person - but do rivers flow to a beat as blood does? The answers are not always as clear as the surface suggests. Shifting between English and isiZulu, Ntuli's unique, jazz-inflected poetry here reaches a new level of innovation, vulnerability and delight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sihle Ntuli\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1037051726\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781037051722\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Uhlanga\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/25\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.17d","brand":"Sihle Ntuli","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47244528582911,"sku":"9781037051722","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ed303712-a8cd-4563-8e42-90af21063934.jpg?v=1758135961","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/owele-sihle-ntuli-9781037051722","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
