Raw African Poetry,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Chattering Wagtails of Mikuyu Prison (African Writers) (Paperback)
A fantastic collection of poetry from Jack Mapanje arguably Malawis finest poet. The poems are vividly descriptive echoeing Mapanjes thoughts and feelings during his time as a political prisoner under (the ex-Malawian president) Bandas regime. He manages to evoke feelings of hatred and disgust at the treatment of the prisoners as the reader shivers at descriptions of weavel filled bowls of rice and feelings of hope as he receives a postcard from Holland. I would thoroughly recommend this collection of poetry to anyone with an interest in human rights.
