These poems leave me with that feeling of spinning round and round... faster and faster... with sudden stops and I am often thrown off the pedestal in a delicious cloud of dizziness. There is the delicate Kathy; crawling out of malady, hanging on for a little while, haunted and in return haunting the persona. In a moment of sheer brilliance, Kathy tries to catch the dark, with her bare hands and sometimes she swims in the shadows. Then there is the affable Valerie. She is the bright day... and she is a cigarette which tries to slowly enter between the lips of a wayfarer...Valerie is as young as the clock and old as time. In The Rest is Silence, Tafadzwa Chiwanza offers us electrifying poems which show us that although life is not a path of glory, at last we reach a place where hope blends with sorrow; the golden edges of sunshine where the shadows end.
