In this exciting anthology the writer seeks to articulate the pertinent issues of everyday life of the African man in his quest for survival. The poems are there for the reader to enjoy and discern from the variety of impressions that life is portrayed from night to day. The writer has used these poems to tell the stories of the joys and sorrows of the African man as he tries so hard to follow his dreams, aspirations and comply with the demands of a dynamic, sophisticated environment- because he has experienced all of the primitive ways of life and all the issues of technological and scientific advances. In the fundamental issues of human kind there is utter chaos, strife, murders, wars and rumours of war, anarchy, famine, poverty ...The African man’s vision is shuttered, aspiration is denied and sadly everything is out of control resulting in unfulfilled hopes and dreams. Even with these gloomy features engulfing him, the African man is convinced that the dawn of a new day will bring him hope and another chance to fix these problems once and for all.

    Edward V Bonner
