For Sistah Scifi Wine Down Wednesday on May 17th, we will discuss The Lies of Ajungo with Moses Ose Utomi!! Join us!! Link in bio: @sistahscifi | www.sistahscifi.com | https://sistahscifi.com/pages/events

As fans of the #AfrocentricAprilBookstaTour // @AfrocentricAprilBookstaTour and Mami Wataworks by Russell Nichols plus Cloud Mine by @TimiOdueso in Africa Risen edited by @ShereeReneeThomas, @PenPrince, and @AuthorZKnight; we throughly enjoyed this novella! And we aren't the only ones!

The Lies of Ajungo has a 4.4 rating and starred review from Publishers Weekly and Library Journal.

“Utomi’s writing is both elegant and efficient, and the story is so eminently devourable that I finished it in a couple of hours. In keeping with the contradictions at the book’s heart, it left me perfectly sated and hungry for more.” —The New York Times @nytimes

“The Lies of the Ajungo is a tightly-packed, devastating punch, a masterful use of the novella as form and a heartbreaking tale of the lies we hold on to—the lies that help us live and the lies that hold us back.” —C. L. Clark, author of The Unbroken @clclarkwrites

“The Lies of the Ajungo is a masterfully epic and delightful tale. It is rich with, and spun from West African lore, with puzzles that unfurl before you as you read, thrilling fight scenes, wonderful mysteries, slowly unfolding secrets, and a dazzling revelation at the end of it all.” —Oghenechovwe Donald Ekpeki

Wole Soyinka: Death and the King’s Horseman

Akinwande Oluwole Babatunde Soyinka (born 1934), known as Wole Soyinka, is a Nigerian playwright, poet, essayist and teacher. He was awarded the 1986 Nobel Prize in Literature for his play Death and the King’s Horseman, and was the first African to be honored in that category.

He is also an activist, and was imprisoned for nearly two years as a political prisoner during the Nigerian civil war, after writing an article calling for a cease-fire. 

Soyinka has published about 20 works: drama, novels and poetry. He writes in English and his works are “marked by great scope and richness of  words” (nobelprize.org).

The handwritten pages pictured are notes about Soyinka’s work by scholar Robert Plant Armstrong, also available in the Archives.

If you are a student at the University of Iowa, there are many works by and about him available in the University Library that you can check out!.

That feeling of lightness,

That feeling of a flower blooming in your chest,

That is hope,

Stop it!

It won’t help you,

You will lose it again.

That smile you have,

Stop it!

You will lose it again.
