In Haiku for Africa, poet Marie Heese takes us on a journey - following the footprints of women before us, women among us, women just like us - to experience the continent of Africa afresh. Enjoy glimpses of shifting landscapes, the shadow of a smile, and fleeting moments captured in a handful of words. An ideal moment of repose is captured with insight and poise. Mother Africa shares her wisdom within this collection of more than 50 haiku poems, through the talents of three formidable women - poet Marie Heese, illustrator Edith Bukani, and voice artist Natalia Molebatsi.
