Wanderer Cantos

It is always a delight to read a work by Remi Raji. Master craftsman, with a unique gift for the magical feel of tone and trope, word and cadence, melody and meaning, Raji has certainly established himself now as one of our finest poets. This new collection from his stable does not disappoint. Plucked out of the poet’s numerous journeys through different lands and diverse encounters, and of his triumph over the trauma of a raging epidemic, the songs of Wanderer Cantos celebrate and re-affirm the eloquent and indomitable essence of our human spirit.”
