An Anthology of East African Poetry is a collection of recent poems from Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, Malawi and Zimbabwe. It has been prepared for secondary school pupils and first year undergraduates. The book is divided into three parts. Part One contains the most accessible poems while Part Two offers more challenging poems for pupils in Form Three and above. Part Three is suitable for candidates sitting the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education and its equivalent in other East African countries, and for undergraduates. Each poem is followed by questions on style, mood and meaning.
In his Introduction A.D. Amateshe provides a clear guide to African poetry today and sets the poems in their historical context. A glossary at the end explains useful critical terms.
A.D. Amateshe, winner of the Margaret Graham Prize for Poetry in 1975, and former teacher, is a Lecturer in the Department of Literature at Kenyatta University.
