Book description
Hearing Akwaeke Emezi read their own words in Content Warning: Everything isn't just listening-it's feeling the rhythm of a soul speaking directly to yours. As the Guardian captured, it "frightens and astonishes," and that's precisely what you experience when Emezi's voice carries these poems. They weave Maya Angelou's fire with Sylvia Plath's raw honesty, but this is something entirely new, shaped by their unique "spiritfirst" perspective.
This isn't poetry you just hear-it's a space you step into. Emezi guides you from "home to homesickness," tracing desire into surrender, abuse into survival, all while building a "chosen family" that includes "the son of god, Mary Auntie, and Magdalene with chestnut eyes." The audiobook makes the spiritual feel tangible, the earthly raw. You hear the weight of "divine and earthly materials" in every pause, every inflection.
What makes this collection so vital is how it reimagines belonging now. Emezi doesn't just describe the "fugitive nature of being in the world"-they make you feel it, especially within Blackness. The poems are "durable anthems" pulled from the "noise of the contemporary moment," and hearing them spoken? It's like finding a lifeline in the chaos. You'll hear lines that stick-"the essence of self that is impossible to drown, kill, or reduce"-and they linger long after the final word.
This isn't just a book; it's an act of resistance, a celebration of a "mischievous and wanting young deity, embodied." Emezi's voice carries the "radiant power and epic grief" that New York Times called a "triumph," and in audiobook form, it's deeply intimate. You're not just reading about healing-you're hearing it unfold, word by word, breath by breath. It's a gift, a warning, and a homecoming all at once. If you've ever felt unseen, you'll find yourself seen here. This is the sound of belonging, finally found.
