Jack Mapanje (born 1944 in Malawi) debuted as a poet in 1981 with his collection Of Chameleons and Gods, which was subsequently banned in Malawi in 1985 for being unsuitable teaching material. In 1987, shortly before taking up a writer in residence fellowship in Zimbabwe, he was arrested and spent four years in prison in Malawi without trial. After his release he went with his family into exile in Britain, where he still lives and teaches. He did not return to his homeland until he visited in 2003 to do his first reading there. Mapanjes poetry is concerned with his experience of being a prisoner in Malawi, political regimes, the hypocrisy and prejudice of racist thinking and religious persecution. Mapanjes voice is full of bright irony, his tone full of anger; a hypnotic poetry of bold narrativity.
