Description:Tolulope Ogunlesi is a real discovery, a young poet of talent and enormous potential. This is his first collection of poetry. ... witty and engaging; a promising first outing by a poet with a clear, precocious voice. A truly significant achievement. Niyi Osundare, Overall Joint- Winner, 1986 Commonwealth Poetry Prize The poems here take us a step farther. They continually beat back the void. Engage them and let them engage you. Uche Nduka, author of "If Only The Night" This is one of the most remarkable first collections I have come across . Tolu's poetry is sturdy, full-blooded and often humorous. While reading this poetry, one always feels that Tolu Ogunlesi is a man whose personality is much bigger than his art; one senses a huge power bottled up, struggling to express itself. We can expect much from this young poet. Gavin Bantock, author of "Floating World" Anyone who has had their breath taken away by the bare stoicness of Ogunlesi's poetry or has enjoyed the perfect symmetry of his short stories is well aware that Nigeria is once again on the brink of producing a son of Soyinka, Chinweizu and Achebe. This is truly a gifted writer. I now look for everything he writes. Kola Boof, author of "Nile River Woman" Ogunlesi's value as a poet is not dependent on the drastic need for voices ... Yes, memorable metaphor, a fine ear and strong, live feeling are brought to the task. They also promise an impressive development. Judith Rodriguez, author of "The Cold" If poetry is a reflection of the soul, then Tolulope Gbenga Ogunlesi's poems reflect a soul much older than his twenty-one years ... Tolulope tells of the African experience, an echo that translates easily to the African American experience, as well. Tolulope's work brings to mind my favorite poet, Maya Angelou. I see in his words, a similar effortless charm and gritty grasp of reality. Judith R. GoffWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
