In A Poet Speaks of Empire, January Nicole Wilson's fourth book of
poetry, the author looks at today's Africa on the precipice of
great change and tumult. Wilson captures something of the zeitgeist
of this new era in Africa. In this book, distinct African countries
inspire poems concerning change, growth, wonder and even love. She
reveals the continent's great history, including the ancient
empires of Ghana, Mali and Songhay, and imagines a future begging
for rebirth. As she astutely points out, the rise and fall of
empire are only a matter of history. Her studies of political
science and African literature, as well as, encounters while living
in Ghana have inspired this thought-provoking collection of poetry.
