Kayo Chingonyi

    Kayo Chingonyi je básnik, ktorého tvorba skúma komplexnosť identity a kultúry prostredníctvom plynulého a rytmického jazyka. Jeho poézia často zahŕňa prvky hudby a performancií, čo odráža jeho vlastné skúsenosti ako MC, producenta a DJ-a. Chingonyiho diela sa vyznačujú hlbokým zamýšľaním sa nad dedičstvom, migráciou a hľadaním domova. Jeho jedinečný štýl spája osobné reflexie so širšími spoločenskými komentármi, čím oslovuje súčasné publikum a prispieva k rozmanitosti britskej poézie.

      Translating as 'initiation', kumukanda is the name given to the rites a young boy from the Luvale tribe must pass through before he is considered a man. In this book, the poems explore this passage: between two worlds, ancestral and contemporary; between the living and the dead; between the gulf of who he is and how he is perceived.
