The Anger of Unfulfillment - Three Plays Out of Nigeria (Hardcover): Jekwu Ozoemene The Anger of Unfulfillment - Three Plays Out of Nigeria (Hardcover)

"The Anger of Unfulfillment: Three Plays Out of Nigeria" presents a collection of three plays intended to capture a great deal of what Nigeria has come to represent today. Each play in this compilation has its own distinctive flavour, seasoned by the circumstantial socio-political variables holding sway in the country at the time it was written.

""The Anger of Unfulfillment"" examines the complex and multi-faceted phenomenon of human trafficking, especially in women and girls. The play's principal characters take us through a serious but often irreverent roller-coaster discourse on the Nigerian state.

The thematic preoccupation of ""Hell's Invitation"" is the social death in Nigeria that is associated with HIV. This stigma, driven by ignorance, scares Nigerians away from learning their HIV status and consequently strips them of the opportunity to seek early treatment. Through the musings and antics ofcharacters such as Aliyu, Emeka, Stella, and Bimbo, you can experience the social stigma through the eyes and souls of the average Nigerian.

""This Time Tomorrow"" presents a comicportrait of Nigerians and their approach to politics and nation-building. Through the voices of the principal characters, it serves as a call to the Nigerian people to take control of their destiny through active engagement and participation.

Shadows of Existence - An Anthology of Poetry (Hardcover): Jekwu Ozoemene Shadows of Existence - An Anthology of Poetry (Hardcover)
Jekwu Ozoemene
R407 Discovery Miles 4 070 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

In this highly moving collection of poetry, Nigerian poet Jekwu Ozoemene shares a rich kaleidoscopic world of African and Western meter, rhythm, and metaphors that present powerful images of the African continent, its people, and the love that surrounds them.

Ozoemene was inspired to write his first collection of poetry after listening to Professor Karen King Aribisala's reading of D.H. Lawrence's Snake at the University of Lagos, Nigeria in 1993. In lyrical verse that showcases immense emotional power, sensory impact, and conceptual interest, Ozoemene offers thoughts of a young man who matured quicker than others and, as a result, grappled with the frustrations and depressions of the adult world. As he battled with the strange idiosyncrasies of life, he sought and found answers to many of his introspective questions through his poetry.

Without shying away from controversial issues such as the abuse of women, bigotry, and religious differences, Ozoemene shares an inspiring message of hope in this, his first compilation of poetry.
