    [synopsis] => "In the poems Musings, Values, Virtues And Vices Of Africa And
	Beyond, the poets engage the reader in intricate, intimate, and
	subtle questions about love and loathing, faith, and grief, Africa and
	beyond, climate change, and change of heart, feminism, and the
	trammels of patriarchy and society. I am primarily
	impressed with the bravery, sincerity, charity, and charm with which
	they excavate, tackle, and illuminate these issues. This is a rare,
	rewarding, reverberating, and relevant book that deserves to be
	read, devoured, and cherished for future generations~ Ndaba
	Sibanda, the author of The Immigrant With A Difference,
	Timebomb, and Cabinet Meetings. A confronting read which
	captures a continent's frustrations. the book mourns
	the death of our values and virtues which have been hounded out
	repeatedly by the vices we wear without any vestige of shame. the
	poems are like bayonets, raw and unapologetic-Nate Gwenambira,
	author of Breakfast with Death.
	The poets give you an insider's view of the complexities
	surrounding the African life in politics, love, marriage, genders,
	feminism, patriarchy, marriage, and society as a whole. Using subtle
	humor, they regale you with serious questions, light moments, the
	great and not-so-great parts about the African experience, and what
	it is like beyond."
