The Writers and Politics

About the Book

This is a unique book. It is a book, like a door that opens itself for the citizens of the world to enter. Reading it is like reading an autobiography compiled and redacted by the citizens of the world. It is an eye-opener that veers into the lives of the past and present political players, as well as the lives of the past and present avant-garde writers. First published in 1991, reading it today is like reading Ifa-Ife, the Book of Enlightenment, or the Bible whose prophecies have come to pass in the 21st century. It is a must-read for every heart that lives.
