“Amu-Nnadi’s achievement is monumental: intimate yet epic, lyrical yet thunderous, local yet universal. Eucalyptus insists on full immersion into its rhythms, names, rivers, and fires. Poetry here is inhabited, performed, lived - a torrent reshaping everything it touches.”

For months and months, I have done virtually nothing here, but talk about the 4th edition of @UmuofiaBookFest, to the extent that I have postponed publicity for my new book. Me and my team have worked so hard and ground our teeth against grain. This was a highlight day 1 on 7/11. – at Enugu, Nigeria

I loved this panel so much. @imanweze was exceptional.
I can't wait to listen to him talk about his book this year.

• To write about poetry is to write about small ideas, spirituality, music, place, tradition, love, pain and to go beyond them.
To write poetry is to travel beyond our realm.

It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby — a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist — to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display in the Hope and Change lobby at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.
