So Far Away: A Collection of Poems (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789789435760)

Obiorah wears his heart on his sleeve
There are poems which elude the reader
There are poems that connect and the reader baths in meaning, context and imagery that perhaps the author didn't even envisage
"So far Away", the anthology, has all of the former and latter and more.
The theme of loss, lost life, lost lives, regrets, sorrow and pain pervades the works - and yet, yet there is also hope, a light glimmers in the gloom.
Cry the Beloved Country is not a prerogative of the Transvaal; it is strongly felt by Obiorah... regret for the path his beloved country has been dragged down. Therein there is a yearning and a desire for change, hope, hopes and tries
Lost, lost, trapped, futile, confused, why-why-why - An aching wish...!
Obiorah's poetry is cathartic - get it out, ignore the gossip-gossip, leave it behind, look to the future and grasp those embers of hope...
A message for us all
