Poetry is a distillation of the heart's purest musings. It makes the imagination soar on nimble wings and conspires to cloud even the driest eye with the mist of an unashamed teardrop.
This collection- compiled over two decades- represents Nganga Mbugua's quest to explore what lies in the nooks of the human soul. It is an invitation to peek under the veil of love and romance, to interrogate patriotism and to test the spirit against the jagged rocks of life. It seeks to question not also explore the land that creates the man.
