This second volume of Wole Soyinka’s collected dramatic works showcases his mastery of the "Theatre of Ritual" and his fierce critique of post-colonial power structures. Moving between the satirical and the tragic, this collection highlights Soyinka’s unique ability to weave Yoruba mythology with Western dramatic traditions.
The volume contains five major plays, including the world-renowned Kongi's Harvest and The Lion and the Jewel. These works explore the clash between traditional African values and the encroaching "modernity" of the 20th century, often using biting wit to expose the absurdities of dictatorship and social pretension. It is an essential text for students of African literature, drama enthusiasts, and those interested in the sociopolitical history of Nigeria.
