Where the Baedeker Leads

A poetry collection by James Yeku.

James Yeku

Where the Baedeker Leadsuncovers the many delicate layers that lie in the spaces between departures and arrivals, offering memories and stories. Whether it's about journeys, personal transition, or changes in the seasons, the aim in these poems is to draw attention to the personal experiences and social conditions that push people away from home to the new landscapes, sights, and encounters that remind them of the times and place they have so painfully left behind. (From Mawenzi House Publishers)

James Yeku is a Nigerian Canadian writer who lived in Saskatoon before moving to Kansas, where he is an assistant professor of African digital humanities at the University of Kansas.
