About the Book

In Zimbabwe, John Eppel and Togara Muzanenhamo epitomise the ideal of the poet dedicated to excellence in form as well as content. There are as many definitions of poetry as there are poets but, as the Merriam-Webster Dictionary usefully explains, poetry is "Writing that formulates a concentrated imaginative awareness of experience in language chosen and arranged to create a specific emotional response through its meaning, sound, and rhythm...." In their arrangement of words and creation of sounds and rhythms, John Eppel and Togara Muzanenhamo promote this classic view of poetry.

About the Author :
John Eppel, born in 1947, is an English teacher in Bulawayo. He published his first poems in the 1960s, in Two Tone, and his first collection, Spoils of War, in 1989. John won the Ingrid Jonker Prize for Poetry for Spoils of War, and the M-Net prize for his first novel, D G G Berry's The Great North Road. His second novel, Hatchings, was chosen for the series in the Times Literary Supplement of the most significant books to have come out of Africa. His other novels are The Giraffe Man, The Curse of the Ripe Tomato, The Holy Innocents, Absent: The English Teacher, Traffickings and The Boy Who Loved Camping. John's other poetry collections are Sonata for Matabeleland, Selected Poems: 1965-1995 and Songs My Country Taught Me. Two collections of his poetry and short stories have been published: The Caruso of Colleen Bawn and White Man Crawling. Poems and short stories of Eppel's have appeared online and in many anthologies and journals, and his recent collaborations with other writers include Together.

Review :
"Eppel has sent roots deep down into the soil." -- Nick Meihuizen, Scrutiny2 "Muzanenhamo can be 'cool' but seldom 'light'." -- John Greening, The Times Literary Supplement "Muzanenhamo could almost epitomize the ... promising future of African poetry ... a bright, new beginning." -- Brendan Nicholls, Stand "The sights, sounds and smells of the Zimbabwean veldt and suburbia determine the shape, imagery and content of Eppel's poems." -- Kizito Muchemwa, Poetry International
