Nyamuteza, named for the planet Pluto in the East African Native language of Runyankore, opens with a Black dictionary definition of four of the brightest objects of the Kuiper Belt. The sonorous book-length poem is a love song that unravels the affective from the perspective of a village in rural Uganda devastated by the climate catastrophe of a hailstorm. The same population is tasked with producing food for the community. Jedidiah Mugarura uses incantation as a mode of expression with a novelistic attention to story. In Nyamuteza the hail is likened to stars and African Nkore ideology is infused with Black thought in seeking a language toward survivance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA PRESS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48208066445364,"sku":"9781496247964","price":38.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/9390\/2132\/files\/9781496247964.jpg?v=1787093140","url":"https:\/\/woodslane.com.au\/products\/9781496247964","provider":"Woodslane","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
