Men Love Chocolates But They Don’t Say

A first collected works by a Ugandan woman poet, who has had her poems published in journals in Uganda and the US. The work is divided into sections entitled: ‘Poems of Challenge’; ‘Poems of Sunshine and Loneliness’; ‘Poems of Loss and Contradiction’; and ‘Poems of Release’. The title poem is a humorous contemplation on the dual-natured personality of man, on the one hand, the masculine identity he presents to his friends; and on the other, his softer side which endears him to women. The author has also contributed short stories to Femrite anthologies and is currently working on a novel.
