Owele
Owele’s inventive and award-winning poems meditate on the origins of Ntuli’s family, clan and language through the earthen-toned rivers of the Zulu world:
A family of rivers flows through the land. Their waters gather, merge and split. But even twins must create their own paths – where do their individual journeys begin, and how far must they travel to their shared destination, the vast and turbulent ocean?
The history of the land becomes the history of the person – but do rivers flow to a beat as blood does? The answers are not always as clear as the surface suggests.
