More about the book
Rooted in the indigenous African poetic tradition, this collection explores themes of self-examination and identity through a four-part structure. Drawing inspiration from udje poets, it blends self-exhortation, self-mockery, and satire. Each section—"Pulling the Thread of the Loom," "Songs of Myself," "Songs of the Homeland Warrior," and "Secret Love and Other Poems"—invites readers to reflect on the minstrel's alter-ego and the complex interplay between personal and communal narratives, revealing deeper truths about self and society.
