The Sweet Spot is a poetry collection which paints ever-soft discoveries through vivid dreams, interior premonitions and one-line capsule. Traversing through familial tensions in stone houses, funeral processions real and imagined, and porous loops with past loves, The Sweet Spot is rooted within landscapes as differing as Zimbabwe, South Africa. Pasipanodya’s mesmerizing language reckons with the non-linearity of understanding one’s self: “the whip cracks and / time is split in three”. Deftly framed by both poetry and photography, each measure of verse acts as a sensitive invitation to find one’s centre amidst the swing from one side of life’s pendulum to the other.

Welcome to the sweet spot…
