amina epistles
In this chapbook, Amina, a Northern maiden falls in love with a fellow Muslim, Ali. Together, they make use of words in two languages — English and Hausa — to express undeniable feelings for each other. The authors, Victoria Willie and Jaachi Anyatonwu, defy restrictions set by society and religion and delve deeper in this expression by describing how sweet it feels when their bodies meet and how sweeter it becomes when love is committed unto the hands of Allah in prayer.
under the sheets
Victoria B. Willie and Jaach? Anyat?nw? bring you “Under The Sheets”, a collection of poems exploring the wet depths of erotic love. The poems in this book are erotically charged, amplifying a latent protest to erect monuments to the primordial force of sex: an attempt to recapture the sensuous, mysterious, and profoundly human experience of intimacy. “Under the Sheets” emphasises the necessity for words to reveal the erotic; the act of staring at people and their bodies until it is altered by uncontrolled desire language, brewed by explicit pun, and refined by resonating metaphor. “Under the Sheets” shows how much we need the deliciously naughty and all of the subtle and important freedom, joy, and connection it can provide. In between the pages of this book, you will find the remnants of a fierce and unbridled passion, intertwined with the ache of explosive wanton desires.
