“The poet is endemic with life itself,” Will Alexander once said, and in this searing pas de trois, Refractive Africa: Ballet of the Forgotten, he has exemplified this vital candescence with a transpersonal amplification worthy of the Cambrian explosion. “This being the ballet of the forgotten,” he writes as diasporic witness, “of refracted boundary points as venom.” The volume’s opening poem pays homage to the innovative Nigerian-Yoruban author Amos Tutuola; it ends with an encomium to the modernist Malagasy poet Jean-Joseph Rabearivelo.

The Teeth of GiantsIn the most savage wilderness on the planet, the Chinese crime cartels hunted the elephants for their ivory. And nobody dared to cross them... Could one man help to put an end to this horrific trade? He was an old friend. His death was suspicious. At the least, ex-special forces soldier Jason Green had to return to Africa to pay his respects. He never intended to get caught up in the murky world of the illegal ivory trade. And falling for a hot-blooded television reporter wasn't part of the plan either.

There is something about the boy. When he is angry, clouds darken. When he cries, rivers burst their banks. And when he touches a basketball, deities want courtside seats. Half Nigerian mortal, half Grecian god: Demi is the Half-God of Rainfall. His mother, Modupe, looks on with a mixture of pride and worry. From close encounters, she knows that gods are just like men: the same fragile egos, the same subsequent fury, the same sense of entitlement to the bodies of mortals. The gods will one day tire of sports fans, their fickle allegiances and their prayers to Demi.

Ma i nostri occhi, pur avendo perso lo sguardo, si erano adattati. Vedevamo nelle tenebre, o credevamo di vedere." Il 10 luglio 1971 un commando militare irrompe nella residenza estiva del re a Skhirate, in Marocco. Ma il colpo di Stato fallisce. I soldati che hanno preso parte alla missione vengono rinchiusi in una prigione sotterranea, sepolti nelle tenebre per diciott'anni.

The Ugandan Tales is set in Uganda and is about the struggles of ordinary Africans against post-independence African rulers that preach freedom and emancipation but have turned into oppressors. This collection of poetry dives deep into topics of police brutality, social injustices, and oppression through the landscape of the tortured cities. Ordinary people seek to reassert their rights against an intransigent regime that is determined to keep them oppressed. The poems chronicle everyday struggles that are faced at the hands of fellow Africans masquerading as Pan-Africanists.
