Songs of the Silent Sun: A Collection Of African Poems (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789785743135)

The African Sun might be silent but come too close and it will burn.

It is beautiful to look at, but do not stare at it for too long by noon.

This collection of poetry is a letter to Africans in diaspora and curious minds all over the world who desire a different and fresh perspective of the narrative from the motherland.

The poems mirror the simple lifestyle of an African village and the harsh realities of our urban slums.

They echo the voice of the jungle and the loneliness of life in a crowded city. The poems are not written to impress the exotic taste of the reader neither is effort made to avoid offending sensibilities of the weary.

This work is unapologetically African, real and raw. Raw as the Atlantic Ocean's waves. These words will take you on a journey.

This is a first in a series of poetry from the heart of the motherland calling for leaders to take up their responsibilities and for the people to embrace self-awareness.
