Produktbeschreibung

'Mfalme - Nilibadilika' is a book spanning over two hundred pages of contemporary Swahili poetry by one of the greatest writers of our time. What distinguishes this book from others is the author's skill in manipulating language, blending formal and colloquial Swahili while upholding poetic principles. In the 'Malumbano ya Kisasa' section of this book, the author engages in poetic debate with various writers, including Shehe Hadji Saeedia, Stephen S. Mkoloma, Sharifa Bakari, Linda Ndalu, Ndugu Chilewa, Omari Njenje, and Primo Thadeo Mgimba. The author has incorporated Swahili proverbs and hilarious 'Mfalme na Kasuku' cartoons into each poem to further elucidate each poem and provide readers with more enjoyment. To ensure that readers who are not familiar with Swahili slang can nevertheless enjoy themselves to the fullest, the author has included a Swahili slang dictionary on the final pages of the book.
