Ghananya Revisited

By Kofi Anyidoho

Appearing in English and Ewe, Kofi Anyidoho's poems in Ghananya Revisited are a lyrical tribute to the Ewe-speaking people, exploring themes of tradition, identity, resistance, community, and the evolving Ghanaian experience. Anyidoho's poems speak to us and transform us because they are celebrative: celebrative of wisdom, of social values, of love; and of dignity, of fertility and rebirth, and of hope--or at least the promise of it. With the structure and vividness of a performance, these rhythmic and buoyant poems convert the page into a stage where the poet-persona pokes the reader's heart with the urgency of the drum.
