Story0
This dazzling debut announces a not-so-new voice: that of the spoken-word poet Tjawangwa Dema. Winner of the Sillerman First Book Prize for African Poets, Dema’s collection, The Careless Seamstress, evokes the national and the subjective while reemphasizing that what is personal is always political. The girls and women in these poems are not mere objects; they speak, labor, and gaze back, with difficulty and consequence. The tropes are familiar, but in their animation they question and move in unexpected ways.

Story0
South Africa is a complicated, contradictory, and haunted place. Len Verwey captures the trajectory of life in such a place, dealing with childhood, war, marriage, divorce, and death. He explores the challenges posed by place and history, shared identities, deep embeddedness in the continent, and the legacies of violence and exclusion, as well as beauty. Verwey offers poems that speak of uncertainty, ask questions, and challenge simplistic and scapegoating narratives that become so tempting when living in a society undergoing intense social and economic pressure.

Story0
Loving the Dying is a collection of poems on life’s different stages. Set against the backdrop of a conflicted society, Len Verwey looks at a person’s life from youth and growing up to aging and dying, considering what the ineluctable reality of death might imply about how we should think about our lives. These are poems of uncertainty rather than certainty. The more overtly biographical ones end with as many questions as they start with, and there is often sympathy for the outsider or the marginalized voice.

Faydé ha preso la sua decisione. Andrà a Maroua, a servizio nella casa di qualche fulani benestante, come hanno fatto le sue amiche, che tornano al villaggio per le festività ben vestite e cariche di doni per le proprie famiglie. Per sua madre, Kondem, la sola idea è insopportabile. Lei sa bene che vita fanno le domestiche in città, e non vuole che sua figlia sperimenti sulla propria pelle la stessa sofferenza e la stessa umiliazione che l'hanno fatta tornare in montagna giurando: mai più.

In A Delicate Delivery, Ndaba Sibanda masterfully weaves words into powerful poetic tapestries, unveiling the silenced struggles, uncelebrated triumphs, and raw resilience of Africa's unsung heroes. With evocative imagery and poignant rhythm, these poems echo the unheeded cries of history, the weight of injustice, and the enduring spirit of those who fought, suffered, and dreamed of a better tomorrow.

Echoes of Military Souls is a power-packed package of art that promises to keep you on the edge of your seat. It is a roller coaster stream of emotion. The poems forcefully remind us that soldiers lay down their lives for fellow humans. But do we really value this singular sacrifice? The theatrical ambience of the poems imprints indelible vistas of hope for the indefatigable human spirit!

I want you to know that I see you. I want you to know that even if no one else does, even if you are a ghost in this bookshop, or just the static floating across the screen of your computer, wherever you’re reading this, I see you. I see you in the dark and I see you in the grey. I see you as a story, as words I have spoken or may yet speak. Maybe only in a memory or a dream. I see your hands and your arms and your body and your legs and your face and I see what you have been and what you will be.
