The post-Nobel era also reveals a positive and consistent step toward the dictum, "justice is the first condition of humanity." Soyinka’s plays, From Zia with Love to Beatification of Area Boys, illustrate this intense quest for social and political justice in his home country, Nigeria. In his later works, there is a grand narrative about the Nigerian State, which the contributors privilege as they point out Soyinka’s ever-conscious attempt to reframe the dark hole of a very troubled collective world.
This volume of essays is distinct from all others because it is the first to make concrete the debate that exists between the pre-Nobel and post-Nobel works of Soyinka and the exchange of both streams of literary output within different periods of Nigerian society.
