The Tale of the Harmattan

Více o knize

Adopting the persona of a homeboy griot, the Nigerian poet reflects on the devastating impact of oil greed, politics, and technology in the Niger Delta. The collection contrasts the tragedy of corruption and suffering with the eco-sensitive animism of his youth. Through angry, elegiac, and lyrical verses, it offers profound insights into the region's plight, transcending the limitations of journalism and prose.
