After a decade of writing short stories and novels, K. Kimuyu’s debut poetry collection is finally here, and his penmanship flows just as eloquently and beautifully in verse as it does in prose.
Teaching Myself How to Be Human is a collection of poems that lays bare the myriad aspects of desire, love, and the embracing of change.
The collection takes readers through the emotional turbulence of trying to connect with other human beings and discovering who you are in the midst of it.
It’s stunningly lyrical, and it tugs at the heart with deep honesty. You will not only sing to the melody in the verses, but also see your reflection in the poetry.
