Black Writers: Wole Soyinka

[@johnotu98]

This man is a genius, in high school we read his book the "lion and the jewel", the man died, the gods are not to blame" and so on, so much respect sir! ALAKE!!!

[@SolagbadeLawal]

Prof. Wọlé Soyinka is the best amongst his peers in Africa.

Not just in Africa, Wole can go toe to toe with the likes of Yeats and at certain intervals beat them. This collection(Samarkand) together with Idanre stand tall enough not just for Africans to see, but for the rest of the world to see.

It should have been Chinua Achebe",his writing is derived from reality in Africa,not cacophony incomprehensible,heaven knows why a man whose"things fall apart piece has been translated into 50 languages,book widely used did not win the noble laurete,heaven understands

What a man... Pure genius.

In my opinion, Ngugi Wa Thiongo deserves a Nobel Prize in literature but because of his anti-imperialist, anti-capitalist and anti-racist stance.

[@megs8602]

I totally agree far superior writer than wole/

[@bigmike43nAZ]

kemo fatty I concur

[@SolagbadeLawal]

+Megs Your are so wrong I must say.

[@sibengerard1856]

@@megs8602 On the grounds of preference any writer in the world could be designated as the best. But on the grounds of technique; the expression of skill across genres...

[@sibengerard1856]

Ngugi of course is a gifted writer, but a political message does not make art- Ngugi should not be judged as an artist on the grounds of his politics but on the grounds of his aesthetics.
