Description
This collection brings together Idanre and Other Poems and A Shuttle in the Crypt, two powerful and distinctive volumes of the early poetry of Nobel Prize laureate and Nigerian exile Wole Soyinka. Taken has a whole, Soyinka's early poetry may be viewed as a valiant effort to reconcile the mysterious legacy of the old with the often harsh realities of an entire continent's abrupt entry into the twentieth century.
