Cat Man Dew, a poetry collection by Nigerian poet Mark Nwagwu is, like it’s predecessor Helen not-of-troy, dedicated to his wife, Helen and a celebration of marital love. It is about the ordinary chances of a long and busy life, boyhood memories, family meetings, birthdays, a day in bed, a rain storm, ofe Owerri and Christmas in Kathmandu.
