This volume contains poems from 1966 to 1989. "A Shuttle in the Crypt", written while Soyinka was in prison, maps out the course trodden by a mind under solitary confinement. "Idanre", a poem on the creation myth of Ogun, was written for the Commonwealth Arts Festival, while "Mandela's Earth" presents a selection of poems that are of searing urgency.

Wole Soyinka - playwright, novelist, poet and polemical essayist - was born in Nigeria in 1934. Educated there and at Leeds University, he worked in the British theatre before returning to West Africa in 1960. Soyinka's career as a political activist in exile is inseparable from his writing which has earned him world-wide acclaim. In 1986 he became the first African writer to win the Nobel Prize for Literature. He is now Woodruff Professor of the Arts at Emory University, Atlanta.
