Stones in the Graveyard is not just a poetry collection—it is a global reckoning carved in verse. South African poet Jaydin Donough, known as The Silent Writer, breaks silence with fire as he resurrects the voices of Gaza, Congo, Ukraine, apartheid South Africa, and other oppressed nations often erased from the mainstream narrative.

Blending raw truth with haunting imagery, Donough introduces Grave Verse, a poetic style forged in grief and resistance. Each poem bears witness to children lost, mothers mourning, survivors scarred, and lands forced to cradle the dead. From the brutal clarity of A Beheaded Child to the defiant epilogue The Last Stone, this is testimony, not fiction.

This is not ink on paper.

This is blood.

This is memory.

This is the sound of the silenced, finally speaking.
