I have just taken delight in reading the article ‘Zimbabwean Literature: A Nervous Condition’ (www.pambazuka.org/en/category/comment/39141) by Brian Chikwava. Quite by chance I recently discovered Zimbabwean poetry. I speak specifically of the war poems. From there I have also found some wonderful poetry, but keep finding myself coming back to the war time poetry. But the problem is they are so inaccessible and I am battling to go further as I have searched too few bookshops that stock these books and I am afraid they are all so unavailable. I was lucky enough to find “Songs from the Temple” by Emmanuel Ngara and have “And now the poets speak”. I have “Patterns of Poetry” and not that much more and do not know where to go to find more of the poets. I am unable to find “Songs that won the Liberation War” by AJC Pongweni. All this time there has been this incredible poetry written in this country and never really promoted – what a pity. What stunning poetry it is, if you have any information to help me with I would be so grateful.
