Not Yet Damascus celebrates a tumultuous era without patriotic
leaders willing to transform their national wastelands into
thriving bastions. The collection salutes and queries: a panoramic
collection intended for the sensitization of all, hence the simple
yet evocative approach. "Poetry can be therapeutic, allowing the
poet to work through issues in life; to find solutions, clarity,
comfort, and peace of mind. It provides a vehicle of expression for
diverse attitudes and fresh insights. Emmanuel Fru Doh has achieved
this feat in this collection of poems Not Yet Damascus. He speaks
in a confident tone of prophetic utterances: advising, warning,
denouncing, protesting and chiding. His poetry has the twin virtues
of relevance and simplicity of diction. He has eschewed the
obscurantist ineloquence and syntactic jugglery of traditional
poets. Passion, energy and cutting irony are the hallmarks of the
poems in the anthology." - Peter Wuteh Vakunta, University of
Wisconsin-Madison, USA "This is the passionate poetry of a
patriotic son of Cameroon. Here is a contemplative, sensitive soul
that watches and registers on his emotional meter, and in potent
imagery, the terrible damage done to his people, country, and
continent." - Shadrach Ambanasom, Professor of Literature,
University of Yaounde I (E.N.S. Annex Bambili), Cameroon
