Fantastic reading! I read this in less than 48 hours. For the first time, a male author honestly drew a fictional woman with every element of bravery that refuses to bow in the face of cruel traditions designed by men to keep her under control. Humphr ...more |

“If we have a very big problem to deal with, it is the problem of realism, because we are weaker than our emotions.”

“THE HOMECOMING is the face of reality. (A literary approach to the social re-engineering of a decadent society)
It was a two-fold finding - a home and a son - and a time for happy family reunion and laughter. Life went on normal in the genteel old town and Ekoyata Egbe was glad to return home to Iyala. And disappointed he was. For he was confronted by unsightly community in the clutches of corruption and superstition.
In a moment too soon, Ekoyata found it hard to believe that his father, Egbe, was a member of a caucus and could give him as a ransom for his image. Also revealed was the top secret of the willful neglect of Iyala because the strong caucus benefited from confusion, with a long history of assassinations. Until he was warned about his honesty of purpose, Ekoyata did not know that he had taken the central stage in the fight and campaign against the caucus. Was he also going to be the next victim of assassination?
It was the beginning of a misery that would sit Ekoyata on he keg of peril... with the thrill of romance... adventure... and keen justice. Would daring to accept the help of a handsome stranger named Okojie prevent the caucus from finding his corpse? ....”

― The Homecoming
“How could an organization so tightly controlled by the very politicians responsible for the nation's rampant corruption be expected to solve the crisis? Were politicians not the root cause of all the unsolved cases in the country? Could the hunter’s dogs be led by the animals themselves and the hunter hopes to get a kill in the end? Could a housefly pass a bad judgment on an open sore?”

If a bunch of people can get Betty White to host Saturday Night Live seems like we can make a great book(s) a bestseller.
