God is the same, eternity past to eternity future; He is the same God today. The great crescendo that is His beauty, dance, song, joy, holiness, and glory we hear but dimly, as from a distance land; but it undergirds and gives meaning to everything we know and experience.

Story
The suitcase she found changed everything. The contents? An elegant dress and an invitation in another girl’s name. Twenty-three-year-old Mary would go to the ball, enjoy how the rich lived just for one night, and then quietly slip back into her real life, sorting rubbish as a poor barmaid. No harm done. Of course, there wouldn’t be much of a story to tell had it turned out that way.

Story
In a world where birth heralds a battle cry, join an exiled protagonist on an odyssey through Ngoni Chiwara's debut chapbook, 'Birth Penalty.' Here, punishment is shifted across the corridors of time, echoing the deeds of past lives. Chiwara leads listeners through a tapestry of poignant short stories and evocative poetry: from the streets of Glasgow to the ancient pathways of a medieval city in Sub-Saharan Africa. Explore the depths of desire, the complexities of tribalism, the shadows of corruption, and the whispers of spirituality, all refracted through the prism of immigration.
