Reviews & Launches

"This is very rich prosaic poetry on the African culture; a colonial and decolonial poetry masterpiece. I really like it. Overall, a great book to read. It raises critical issues on Pan-Africanism, the urgency of the decolonial process, the incense and global space for African indigenous ways of knowing, knowledge and shared spaces in the world of knowing."

"Rabbit on the Pulpit is a unique poetry anthology combining great story telling with illustrations that bring each poem to life. I was very excited to be part of the team to bring this dream to fulfilment."

"It's encouraging to see a civil servant that labors to put their thoughts together in literature. Poetry as articulate as the man himself"

"Innovative and well written proseoetry. Gives interesting reading with its excellent short but packed proseoetry done stories. Great talent."

Rabbit On The Pulpit

The Rabbit on the Pulpit is prose-oetry of a relentless child-to-adulthood codification of a bicameral soul wandering this universe. The audience is not static; it keeps changing, just like the universe. The witty rabbit is full of humour and crispy comedy but is cleverer than most animals, deserving of their attention.

It is this character that resonates in every rendition. The persona keeps inventing new stories to keep a hold of the audience.

The Monologue Diary of a Covid19 Walker

The setting of this book is in the neighbourhood of Naalya, Kampala as Benard traces his routes to the Northern By-pass for his daily walks and the many other routes. The mention of Naalya gives the story in the book authenticity, especially for readers who understand routes bordering Kira in the north, Kyaliwajjala and Namugongo in the northeast of Kampala.

Benard uses 100 poems clustered as 10 poems for each chapter to poetically share the shock, resignation, and indignation of the entire social fabric of our society to the pandemic.
