Russian Midnights

And nightmares seem to follow To tell me where I'm from And I know that I'm alive To find out that you're gone   Delve into this collection of beautiful poems; war, death, love and politics, God and the Devil, loss; all culminating in an expression of raw human emotion. The Poet is a wordsmith and skilfully weaves words into verse.  Gyasi is a master of rhythm; the poems in 'Russian Midnights' flow off the tongue when read aloud. They can be enjoyed within a group setting, or as an individual reader. The collection can be dark and disturbing at times, with some poems having an element of surrealism and a dream-like quality. There is a recurring and profound sense of loss throughout the collection. The poems are guaranteed to leave an imprint on the reader long after the book has been put down.
