The sun will be rising

‘The Sun Will be Rising’ is the first collection of poems from the Sudanese poet Akol Meyan Kuol. Touching in their honesty and simplicity, this selection of poems comes straight from the heart. They were written between 1992 and 2000 and cover a range of topics including love, friendship and hope. This anthology is refreshing in its perspective. It speaks of Sudanese culture and spirit with the voice of a Sudanese man driven from his homeland by war and corruption. The hope and optimism contained within these pages cannot help but capture every reader.
