DOWNLOAD EBOOKBlack Hole and Other Poems, a new compilation of verse by poet David Murray, focuses on the role played by hunger for power in reducing the success of heterosexual romantic relationships. Divided into four parts, this collection explores the topic in a wide variety of styles and approaches. The first part of the collection, 'Poems in a Lighter Vein', interprets the familiar vampire story as being an allegory of common male fantasies of having power over many 'brides', and most of its verses are satirical in nature. The second part, 'Black Hole, ' contains examples based upon Murray's experiences of the personal power, all too easily abused, exerted by men over women. 'Treading Water, ' the third part, describes Murray's feelings when he found himself forced to compete with a male rival to see which of the two could exert the most power over a particular female's affections. In the fourth and final part, 'Bagatelles', each poem attempts to arouse, in only two lines, core emotional responses of the kind that are usually assumed to require longer poems. Satirical, gutsy and succinct by turns, this book explores the role of power in sexual relationships and the varying aspects of that power.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn 2010, billions of naira were spent to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Nigeria's independence since 1960. More naira are to be spent in 2014 to commemorate the centenary marking the nation's birth in 1914 from an amalgamation of diverse group of peoples, languages, cultures and expectations. As the conscience of the nation, writers are calling for a deeper introspection. A hundred years after unification, the most populous African nation has oscillated from being great to being fickle, from colony to independence and dependency, from peace to war to ungraceful insecurity, from military dictatorship to civilian oppression and profligacy and much more of the many contradictions of a complex national polity. In this special collection Poems for a Century: An Anthology on Nigeria, poets from different backgrounds, generations and persuasions explore what it means to be a citizen of this unique African country. Shifting from despair to hope, lamentation to happiness, condemnation to adoration and every gamut of sensibilities imaginable, the contributors reiterate the notion of engagement and the power of the written word to push for social change in their beloved nation. In fifty poems, Nigeria becomes the muse not just to raise questions about its past experiences and present contexts, but also to posit aspirations for a better nation.
