Hardcover. Condition: As New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 1-250 numbered copies SIGNED by Soyinka and by Barry Moser. We are honored to announce the publication of the first fine press limited edition by Wole Soyinka, winner of the 1986 Nobel Prize for Literature. Wisteria Press fourth book is a volume of powerful original poetry: Soyinka s first since the widely acclaimed collection, Mandela s Earth (1988). Wole Soyinka has lived in exile from Nigeria since 1994 under a threat of death (which was only recently rescinded). He reflects in these seven poems written during this period on his own alienation in the presence of tyranny; the effects of the despotism in Nigeria on its children; the virus of loss, creativity and dispossession. The 36 page book is letterpress printed in three colors by Dwight Agner of The Press of the Nightowl and is illustrated with an original engraved frontispiece portrait of Soyinka by Barry Moser. Dr. Rudolph Byrd, chairman of the African-American Studies Program at Emory University, contributes an introduction. There are 250 numbered and 26 lettered copies offered for sale. All are signed by Soyinka and by Moser. The numbered copies are printed on Mohawk Superfine paper and handbound in Brillianta cloth. Very fine. Signed by Author(s).
