Grief is atonal. It haunts you in no particular key. When you think you’ve found a tonal center and rest, it disintegrates your mind to remind you of its insistence.

COVER REVEAL In a wide range of thematically linked poems that move through the landscapes of Nigeria and the United States, we encounter the borderless natures of grief and joy, sound and silence, and the unending possibilities of language.

BREAKING: Echezonachukwu Nduka is a Nigerian-born poet, pianist, and scholar. His writing has appeared in publications including Transition, Lolwe, Jalada Africa, The Indianapolis Review, Isele Magazine, Unbound: An Anthology of New Nigerian Poets Under 40, among others.

A much cherished endorsement from a respected colleague!

I love the lecture part of lecture-recitals as much as the piano recital itself. They are essential for contextualizing repertoires, performance practices, and educating audiences about fringe genres such as African pianism. Kroc Center of Philadelphia photo credit: Veda Brown
