UNTIL THE MORNING AFTER BY GHANIAN POET

On Saturday, September 21, the Ghanaian poet Kofi Awoonor was shot dead at Nairobi's Westgate mall by terrorists. His poems evoke the traditional dirges of his southern Ewe-speaking Anlo people of Ghana. Because of our connection with Ghana, the library staff has purchased a collection of his poems from 1963-1985 called Until the Morning After.
