Generally regarded as the most lyrical of the poets of his generation for his simple down to earth visual and descriptive imagery which makes his poem among the most memorable, JP Clark is perhaps the most underrated of Nigeria’s literary giants.
The ilesanmi children are on holidays at their grandparent’s house in Ibadan, until their grandfather has to travel to Ilorin urgently. Along with their neighbor, nosa, they are sent to spend one week in the care of their grandmother’s aunt,79-year-old mama onireke of Ebenezer lodge
eke is a troubled young man living in the suburbs of cape town. He develops strange habits of stalking people, stealing small objects and going from doctor to doctor in search of companionship rather than cure.
He was not only the finest poet of his generation but I believe that as his work becomes better and more widely known in the world he will also be recognized as one of the most remarkable anywhere in our time.
Oluwadele, in my opinion, has succeeded in bringing together an assembly of his writings over the years. The book – Thoughts of a Village Boy, represents a compendium of different areas of human endeavor and expression of author’s views on different issues in our national life.
The book is very rich in events and ideas from which people of all ages can learn. He is a very knowledgeable and highly talented writer. He has succeeded in prompting whoever reads this book to think deeply on how our country can be better governed and the role elites should as a matter of priority assume from now on. His take on his perception of Tinubu’s Philosophy of Poverty Management is worth considering. I believe the message is for our politicians and those aspiring office holders.
Moving between Ghana and Nigeria, this is a heartwarming story of a girl beating a path to self-actualization amidst political upheaval in Rawlings Ghana and strained relations between her ancestral countries
