| Publisher Description: Nigel Daring has written an abundance of poetry over the years tackling various subject matter. A lot of his poems have been focused on Rastafari. This book represents a compilation of the very best of them, as per its title. Mr. Daring selected these poems based primarily upon feedback from the Rastafari community. In a sense, this is their book representing their perspectives to the world. Upon reading "Compilation: The Very Best Rastafari Poems of Nigel Daring", one gets a sense of the dynamics and values of an often-misunderstood community. Stereotypes are squashed herein, replaced by sound morality. The book also provides a legitimate entry point for those considering Rastafari. It lays out standards and realms of conduct expected of a true Rasta. It also gives the public a way to differentiate real Rasta from imposters. "Compilation: The Very Best Rastafari Poems of Nigel Daring" further gives insight into the enduring strength and conviction of the adherents of Rastafari as well as pertinent features of the culture. It celebrates important contributors through dedicated poems that lavish praise. It presents Rasta worship, occasions of worship, and rituals germane to Rastafari faith and culture. It rationalizes Rasta conduct while it appeals emotionally. The public gets a synopsis of Rastafari, their behavior, beliefs, and thinking from reading this book. As Rastafari continues to grow, the author's hope is that this book along with his other works (and other works of Rastafari generally) will contribute significantly to assuring its proper survival, prosperity, and progress. The wish is that Rastafari no longer lingers in stereotype and negative associations as it branches the world over. Rastafari should be regarded as it is, a spiritual, cultural, and liberating force whose DNA contains the essential prerequisites for a thriving humanity. This book shouldn't be the end of all questions surrounding Rastafari. It should rather serve as the beginning or one stage in a continual process of learning about a great people and culture. |
