A Time For New Dreams is a painfully, overwhelmingly beautiful collection of poetic essays about childhood, Africa, being a writer, responsibility, and honor of being a poet, poetry, life, London, photography and so much!
Those are some of my favourites essays:
"Books are like mirrors. Don't just read the words. Go into the mirror. That is where the real secrets are. Inside. Behind. That's where the god's dream, where our realities are born".
"Africa is our dreamland, our spiritual homeland."
"It's Africa turn to smile."
"That would be the loveliest gift of the twenty-first century:
to make Africa smile."
"Then humanity can begin to think of the universe, even the remote stars, as its true home.
"Read the world. It is the most mysterious book of all."
