A Scent of Heaven is food for the soul lost in the dark night of the soul. This body of poems heals the wounds of the hopeless on every level-- many have found freedom in this text. Written as an ekphrastic text, the cover met Igwe with the telling of her story, and the stories of her people.
These words are a radically honest approach to the altar of the soul, and the words invite you to join in this recounting of the body, mind and Spirit. Written by a living ancestor for other living ancestors--those who are wading the deep and dark at the bottom of the sea, here they found me a bit of me. This work is heavily influenced by Igwe's spiritual journey and her life existing between cultures: a quintessential, Nigerian brand of Christianity and her forays into the world of Odinani and ancestral veneration.
Wata Don Pass Garri is a body of work that is the talk-back to 2. It is one of Nkechi Ani's most honest bodies, detailing her feelings about magic, the family that stole her family, and the absolute reclamation of her power in sweet work, the pleasing of herself first. Nkechi Ani describes her experiences in the months following her fourth book, Biafra: God Answers. This book is a resurrection as it is included in a number of works that were stolen from Igwe's laptop. 'I wrote them again, and this time I'm sure you'll tell a friend' is Igwe's response to the theft of what appeared to be her empire. 'I got more skins heaux'. In this book you meet Ting, one of Igwe's many manifestations. She discusses her discontent with the concept of fatherhood in both mainstream and indigenous society, and offers very sharp rhymes for those she feels deserve her wrath, her divine anger (((FA))). This book is best used for darker altar work, and is coined 'The Ancestral Clapback' to the robbery of the millennium that never was ('cuz a bitch wrote it again'). Utilizing her signature (((A)))ndromedan light language as well as the Igbo language, she paints a picture of the vinegar she's giving 2.
Ugochukwu: Birds of Pray is a collection of poems that elucidate the journey of connecting with God through elements of nature, and the uncertainty that we experience when we are called to express faith in our path, even the parts of the path that we cannot see or prepare for. Moving prose written with the intent to stretch the English language and its punctuation for those who have grown weary of a language that limits expression. This book is a reminder that there are no rules in writing if you do not want them. Journey into the pages of this forbidden book.
