Kuoya has created a powerful collection of soulful poems that juxtapose images of revolution and displacement with the solace found in nature and the achievement of inner peace. Carrying with him recollections of his homeland, he embarks on an inward journey, quieting his ?roving mind? and following the ?whispers? of his destiny. ?Sit in the heart of your presence,? he advises?a meaningful message for us all. ?
