    Just finished reading my copy for the second time. This time I read it to/with a friend and damn …. every word every line hits like that first time ,maybe even louder now that they were read out loud.

  4. Rahab – 7th May 2025

    Rated 5 out of 5

    No matter the season that you are in in your life, the poems and words in this book meet you there, where you are, and give you hope, that whatever you’re going through, you’re not alone.
    Someone else has or is walking in the same journey and road as you are.
    It’s adding the unspoken words during the Christian’s pilgrim process.

    To all poem lovers ;
    Having been the audience to most of the Uncharted Words when they were being adopted and now seeing them out to in world, its hard not to feel proud of such a great poet. A read will really make it worth your while.

    A five star rating is clearly an understatement as the journey across the Uncharted words is really just starting.

    I’ve been a follower of Muriuki Gitonga for a while now, and when I heard his poetry collection was out, it was hard not to get excited.
    His words carry simplicity laced with grace and such beauty that they speak and sooth the heart.
    If you want to know how poetry can move you, Uncharted Words is where to start!

    Rated 5 out of 5

    If you’re a poem lover with a love for diversity and indepth thinking…..uncharted words is just that uncharted. Some poems are simple and leave you with that feel-good-&-sit-by-the- fire..kinda awesomeness. Others have you mauling over your life choices. All in all, this poem collection is worth it’s salt. I’d highly recommend.

A Season of Blood: Poems from Kenyan Prisons by Maina wa Kinyatti

Books, International Bestsellers, Kenya Fiction, Poetry
KShs1,200.00 KShs990.00
The conditions that prisoners in Kenya endure are extremely barbaric. Every morning at 5 a.m., male prisoners are ordered out of the cells stark naked for internal body searches. The guards search their mouths and armpits, ears and nostrils. They pull, twist and squeeze their genitals. They order the prisoners to face the walls with their legs spread apart to examine their anuses for concealed weapons, money and other contraband. They use sharp sticks to probe the prisoner's rectums. In a sense, the guards are more interested in prisoners' buttocks than in the search. They make sexual remarks such as, "Look at this one, his buttocks are two mountains, it is difficult to mount him...and look at this one, his arsehole is sharped like a woman's vagina...This one has a soft arse like his mother..." After the brutal searches, the prisoners are beaten and kicked. These monstrous acts are repeated every morning. It is a humiliating and degrading. Maina was arrested on June 2, 1982 by dictator Moi's regime for the crime of thought. He was imprisoned for six years with hard labor. Despite the brutal isolation and censorship, physical and psychological torture, Maina made friends with a few prison guards who supplied him writing material and smuggled everything g he wrote out of prison and took it to Mumbi, his wife. The poems in this text were part of the written material smuggled out of prison. The themes of poems express the horrors of imprisonment, the brutality and viciousness of the Kenyan authoritarian regime, the intensification of the struggle for democracy.
