Description
Wole Soyinka's Isara: A Voyage around "Essay" is the second instalment in his memoirs series. Two years after writing his celebrated childhood autobiography, Ake, Soyinka opened a tin box that had belonged to his father, sparking the inspiration for this new work. The simple contents of the box provided the fuel for Isara, a deeply personal and introspective exploration of Soyinka's life and experiences. This book offers a unique insight into the author's thoughts and feelings on identity, culture, and belonging. With 240 pages of thoughtful prose, Isara is a thought-provoking read that invites readers to reflect on their own relationships with family, heritage, and self-discovery.
