REVIEW: IN ‘THE PLEDGE’, FELIX DURU SHOWS THAT WHAT TIES US TOGETHER AS A NATION IS MORE THAN WHAT SEPARATES US

Eugene YakubuJanuary 26, 2021January 27, 2021

REVIEW: THE POEMS IN ‘HOW TO VIEW THE WORLD FROM A GLASS PRISM’ SEDUCE READERS TO STEP OUT OF THEIR HEADS AND GO SEARCHING FOR MEANING

Eugene YakubuJanuary 26, 2021January 26, 2021

The poems are surreal, like something in a dream, dissipating like mist and seducing the reader to step out of his head and go searching for meaning. Like every good work of art, How to View the World from a Glass Prism allows the reader to pick out diverse meanings in each line.

REVIEW: TAI OMOAKIN’S ‘BROKEN STRINGS’ IS NOT CLOUDED WITH IRRELEVANT ALLUSIONS AND OVER-FLOWERY DICTION

Eugene YakubuJanuary 26, 2021January 26, 2021

OmoAkin shows commendable adeptness with structure and tone, her rhythm is near perfect and the atmosphere and mood of her poems couldn’t have been better. Broken Strings isn’t clouded with irrelevant allusions and over-flowery diction.

don’t get mad at women

we want to be seen as something more
than our mere flesh and bone

FAREWELL, NNEDI (a short story by Jason Joshua Chigozie)

adminJanuary 26, 2021January 26, 2021

Mama has always known pain. She had lost every battle in life, battles she fought armed with only love. As her accusers’ words stung her, she looked up and recounted her losses in loud wails punctuated by weeping bouts.
