"Oxigeniosia", by Franklin Gravata, and "O Clamor do Tambor Negro", by Vally Moronvick, will be launched in the city of Tete, on March 28, at the Samora Machel Interpretation Center, starting at 4pm. They are poetry books published by Mapeta Editora.
Franklin Gravata's book will be presented by journalist Luísa Menezes and Vally Moronvick's book by academic Arcénio Luabo.
In "Oxigeniosia", Franklin Gravata presents a poem of support for the increasingly gloomy days that we all face at some point in our lives. It's a proposal to laugh, cry, love and hate, and is, in short, a pillar for those who, despite being overwhelmed by difficulties, continue on their journey.
Franklin Tieborn on April 27, 1991, in the city of Chimoio, Manica province, is a reader and curious about the art of writing. He has a degree in International Relations and Diplomacy from the then Instituto Superior de Relações Internacionais (ISRI) in Maputo. He published the poetry book Sereia do Zambeze (2020).
In "The Clamor of the Black Drum", Vally Moronvick challenges the chains that society imposes on the way we live, inviting the reader to re-evaluate the world around them. Each poem is a steady drumbeat, resonating with an urgency that nourishes the spirit, while questioning norms and provoking a silent revolution in the mind.
